    most people log it as circuit training. you probably burn around 200 cals a workout!

    Log it under circuit training. I usually burn around 220 calories or so from 27 minutes.

    See, I burn over 300. If you don't have a HRM, log it as either circuit training or vigorous calisthenics.

    I have a Timex T5G971 HRM, under $40 on Amazon, that I really like....

    The message board topics I read about this by searching on this site were to put it in Cardio as 20 minutes of Circuit Training, general.

    There were posters that had monitored their burn with a HRM (Heart Rate Monitor) and found the results to be comparable. I have not personally verified this, as I don't yet have a HRM, but believe this would be a reasonable burn to use for logging.

    Hope that helps.

    According to my HRM, I burned around 300 calories per workout. I little less for level 1, and a little more for levels 2 and 3.

    You really need a HRM, MFP calculations under circuit training is really low compared to what I actually burn.

    I read that on average a 150 lb person burns 180 calories. Still waiting to get my HRM to know for sure. I added a workout called Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred it under cardio

    Log it as circuit training; also know that this site (for me at least) measures it rather low. I have a HR monitor and I burn more then what is stated. If you do not have a HR monitor I would average it out.

    I used to log it as circuit training as well, then I got an HRM.

    I have burned anywhere from 260 calories to about 310 on each level.. depends on how hard I go, how much I'm struggling.. etc. It is different for everyone but until you get an HRM you should just do the circuit training one :)
