Martial arts?

AmberXenon

Ok, so I am currently a student of Minna-Jiu-Jutsu, which is practical street self defense. According to MFP, this activity burns 1168 calories (just as generic martial arts) for an hour and a half. After having read that MFP tends to go high, I dropped that number back to about 750. I can't really afford a heart rate monitor at the moment.

Any other martial artists know where a ballpark figure might be?

It's a great workout! My son son does sport competitive karate has only 9% body fat! granted he's only 13, but the workouts are awesome!

Part of my inspiration to lose weight comes from wanting to eventually be a black belt.

Realized that I'd never get one if I was sclumpy!
