    Heart rate monitor. No doubt about it. I recommend it for everyone!

    I would suggest wearing a heart rate monitar.....you can probably fing a general amount of calories burned on this website, or the website of the video, but for your exact amount it will all depend on your stats( weight, height,.....)

    Honestly, I don't think the ones on here are all that accurate, even generally. I punched in 60min of high intensity aerobics, and it said there was a 250cal discrepency as to what my HRM says I burned. Also, how much someone weighs makes a difference. My hubby and I will run the same distance at the same speed, and I will burn about 450 cal where he will burn 1100. (he and I are about 100lb difference) I don't put any merit into the "guess-timate" charts.
