Tae Bo Live Advanced calorie question...

chevy88grl

Did the 60 min Tae Bo Live Advanced dvd today. I put in the time into MFP and it said something like 630 calories, so I decided to google it to see if anyone knew what you might burn. Found a website with Tae Bo "Moderate" listed (not sure it was moderate since it kicked the crap outta me, but I went with the lowest one) and it had listed as burning 748 calories. I went with 600 calories, but I reallly don't know how accurate it is. Anyone know anything about calories burned with Tae Bo? I don't have a heart rate monitor yet.

You burn a ton of calories with tae bo! At least I know I do! It's quite an intense workout. I would always estimate low though until you get your HRM.

Honestly, everyone is different. Any number you get from any website, whether it MFP, Tae Bo, or anything else, will only be a guess as to what you burned, and in my opinion, I wouldn't trust the number. A HRM will help you considerably in knowing what you burn. Just remember to subtract out your BMR from whatever the HRM shows.

I want to get a HRM, but right now it just isn't my budget. So, I have to do my best to guess on it right now. When I'm at the gym, I use the number from the treadmill (or I'll use the number off the pedometer on my ipod if I walk/run where I don't have the calories burned in front of me). Unfortunately, my ipod can't track Tae Bo.

This particular video is a quick warm up, cardio, ab floor work, then they do work that helps to tone your butt and then MORE cardio before the cool down. It is intense!
