    Probably not many calories at all, really. You'd likely need to get a HRM and try to track it that way to get any clear idea.

    Probably not a whole lot of calories....that's more of a toning exercise...but keep it up...it's still good for you!!!

    I would see if there is a kegel exercise or google to see how many calories that has, then use it, u might have to adjust the calories to fit, like add them twice, depend how long you actually do this exercise. I prefer walking while doing this exercise, that way you are getting more benefits. I like the fact that if you suck in your stomach muscles, it actually helps tighten them!:smile:

    I'm not saying that's what you did. I'm saying that if you care enough to log the couple of minutes, that's what I would log it as (or at least use the same calorie burn numbers) because it sounds pretty close.
