Reset and High Burn Days

I started the second month of Insanity today and during the one hour workout I burnt almost 800kcal

I am doing the reset right now-should I eat some extra calories?

    If the burn dropped your NET below your BMR, then yes...eat back some calories to get it over BMR again.

    That estimation looks pretty high

    I have done a couple rounds of Insanity, the calorie burns even for the longest and most intense MAX workout was only about 500-600 calories, or about 10 calories per minute. Every body is different but you should still be around that amount.

    Make sure your HRM is calibrated and set up right, and you stop it once you get to the stretching part at the end.

    It was not an estimate it was measured with my Polar and it is calibrated right

    I usually do have high burns

    I guess everybody is different.
