    I don't know how many calories are burned but I did this DVD 2 days ago for the first time and I can hardly walk from all the lunges and squats! My legs are majorly sore. How did you do with it? I put in 20 minutes of cardio on here on our exercise report. I wasn't too sure what to put. I would love to know myself! Good luck!

    I usually burn about 230 calories for part 1. Sometimes a little more. I've found no matter what I'm doing I burn about 10 calories/min. I definitely recommend getting a HRM it really helped me get an exact count for my calories so I wasn't eating more exercise cals than I was actually supposed to!

    The first time I tried it I got through 15 minutes (5 were warm up) and the next day I felt like I was going to die...I was sore for 4 days after that and the only thing that finally made it go away was soaking in the jacuzzi when I went to the spa...

    I use to so it when I first started losing weight almost 1 year ago, but I had surgery back in May so I kinda slacked on doing the dvd and resorted to walking. Well I did it yesterday and OMG! I am sore, my legs, bottom and shoulders...I was going get up and do the power sculping max dvd this morning but I just couldn't move..Maybe later today. Take care:bigsmile:

    I also have the Power Sculpt dvd from the Biggest Loser. And I have another Biggest Loser workout dvd, and Jillian Michaels Cardio Kickbox which I haven't done yet. I watched (yes watched!) the Cardio Kickbox and it reminded me of Billy Blanks Tae Bo so I know I will like it. It took 2 days after the Cardio Max to get on the elliptical machine....sore sore sore. I love that feeling!!:bigsmile: :happy:

    HRM = Heart Rate Monitor. I have a Polar F6 that I love. You wear one part on your wrist and the other around your chest (some don't require a chest strap). It monitors your heart rate and tells you how many calories you are burning based on your weight/heart rate. Before I got one I was just estimating calories burned and, since I was eating my exercise calories, I was eating eating a few too many calories each day. Once I got a HRM I started losing weight more consistantly!

    thanks for answering my question!!! can I get one at any fitness store? I saw someone talking about a Polar F6 for women. Do I have to make sure it is for ladies? Thanks again for your wisdom! I'm still new here and trying to get my barings!

    I think in general you can enter it as "aerobics". :)

    I have this one and the strength training one with Jillian, Jillian:grumble:, don't know how people can work out with her, I'd be crying! Anywho, I use an HRM, that's the only accurate way you know what you are burning, GREAT investment!

    One thing to keep you from being sore, make sure that you don't do the same workout everyday. Especially things that work specific muscles like power sculpt. I rotate through power sculpt, walking, and biking. Just make sure that you aren't doing the same thing or you can seriously overwork your muscles and strain something.

    I just got an HRM and here's what I got:

    I'm 5 '4, 138 lbs and I burned 356 calories doing the warm up (5mins), level 1 (20 mins), level 2 (10mins) and stretching on my own.

    All together my HRM said 41 minutes and 356. Just a guide for someone who may be my size.

    I really like the 30 day shred, but yea, don't do it every day..I think 3x a week is ideal with cardio on the "off" days..I havent gotten sore yet as long as you do her stretching afterwards...I just ordered a HRM so I can measure how many calories I burn during it..very curious! :)
