I do Insanity and I burn anywhere from 300 to 500+ calories depending on which workout I do and how hard I push myself. I did the Plyometric cardio circuit workout today and burned 550 calories, but have done the same workout in the past and only burned 400. It is really difficult to just guess or even estimate what you're burning, and as you gain stamina you'll burn even more during your workouts and not even realize it because you are able to push yourself harder for longer. Your best bet is to invest in a heart rate monitor that will also track your calories burned. That is what I do.

As for "what" you would log it as, I log Insanity as cardio. I've never done or seen p90x, so I'm not sure how to log it, but it really doesn't matter...but Myfitnesspal will only allow you to input calories burned under cardio excises, so I'd put p90x under cardio too just so that you can keep up with your calories burned.
