Hey,

I'm new to MFP. i don't have one of those gadgets to measure how many cals you burn. does anyone have a good estimate of how many cals im burning doing level 1 of 30 day shred? i would describe my work out as intense, i'm 206lbs and i'm 5' 11". any ideas i cna't find it on the database.
i've been adding it as 300 cals burned but i've lost 3lbs this week since monday so im thinking thats wrong.

This is a very difficult question to answer because it depends on your level of fitness and heart rate. The faster your heart rate the more you burn. I would highly recommend investing in a heart rate monitor if you want a more accurate account.

According to people with heart rate monitors, that calculator is accurate to within 15 calories.
