    I can't imagine trying to guess my calorie burn from Insanity without a HRM. So far, it has been really high, like it is when I run (not jog). With P90x, my calorie burn and heart rate wasn't very high at all except with the Plyo x. I seems like putting in circuit training in MFP gives you a pretty high burn, maybe that would be kind of comparable to Insanity. Sorry, I know that wasn't much help, but I just don't know.

    I use a bodybugg and usually burn 600 calories doing an Insanity workout. HRM's tend to run high with calories (when I used one it was reporting I burned 1200 most workouts!)
