Dace Central X-Box

Does anyone track their exercise when "playing" Dance Central on X-Box Kinnect? Would be interested to hear about your calorie burn and also how you track it. I can't find it when searching.

Both Dance Central games have a calorie tracker. You just have to use the fitness mode. In DC1 it will ask u your weight, in DC2, u just go into fitness mode. They count ur calories and time danced.

Best thing to do is add an exercise with the name of it. Then any additional info you want to record add it into the notes. This is what I do with EA Sports 2 with the kinect. Works like a champ. Also I use a HRM to count my calories the game counts are normally wrong. Zumba is normally over 300 to 400 and EA sports is normaly under 100 plus. Good luck.

Thanks! We were messing around with it last night and I didn't want to put the fitness mode on until today (When I was actually going to start tracking it).

I am in love with the game! Blows any wii exercise out of the water as far as actually getting a continuous workout.
