in Introduce Yourself
I'm thinking about getting the Insanity series, but don't see it in the Exercise Database. How do you know how many burned calories to enter because I'm sure the Insanity 20 min workout burns more than a regular aerobic 20 min workout.

    Like everyone has stated here, get a HRM. There is nothing close in the data base that comes close to the amount of calories you will burn. In the first series of workouts (35-40 mins), I burn anywhere from 525-625 calories.
    Good Luck if you decide to get INSANITY. I love it!
