I have just started this exercise video. I have looked everyewhere for the calories that I burn while doing it. I know its 35 minutes and it kicks my butt more than any other video I have done. Does anyone have a clue how to calculate the calories burned? Or should I just list it as high impact aerobics?

    I do a lot of Jillian's DVD's and I base my calories burned on a heart rate monitor. I suggest you get a heart rate monitor as it is more accurate than machines at the gym, etc.

    Before I had my HRM I logged her stuff as circuit training since there's such a variety in the workout. I have a HRM now, and while it's not the best, it says I burn around 400 calories on that DVD if I'm really pushing it. I'm 5'8" and about 153lbs.
