So I did some turbo fire today and when I logged it it said I burned 818 calories. Now, I know I need to get a HRM to be sure but how accurate is the calculator? I worked hard, it was a 45 minute workout. But I don't feel like it was 818.

    I find when doing very vigorous exercise I burn about 10 cal a minute. Usually a bit more doing turbo fire because my HR is so high. Its very different depending on your age and weight. I would highly suggest investing in a HRM

    Its possible that its that high. Its going to be different for everyone based on your weight and how hard you're working at it. In an hour of cardio boxing, according to my HRM I burn 800-900 calories. That is usually soaked in sweat and breathing hard! And I'm 275 lbs. Hope that helps some!
