Hiit classes- calories burned?

Options
I'm taking Hiit classes (hi intensity interval training) and I don't know what I should log it under in my cardio diary. I do burpees, pushups, sit ups, squats, weights, jumping jacks, steps. I'm not sure if this is circuit training or under aerobics

    I've been wondering this too. I do different work out videos (mostly Jillian Michaels) that describe themselves as HIIT workouts. I've been logging them as circuit training but I thought circuit training was mostly rotating through different strength moves (without the cardio).

    Also, I'm trying to improve my speed in a 5K so on my cross-training days, I do a HIIT workout. Do you think this counts as cardio cross-training and strength training? Or should I be doing strength and cross-training separate?
    Thanks for any input!
