    I'm a 260 pound male, just looked and it would have me at 314 calories burned for 20 minutes of general circuit training, does that sound right? Or maybe a little high?

    20 minutes of running (12 min mile) is also 314 for me right now.

    I generally log it as 20 minutes of vigorous calithenics- it says 155 calories. This seems accurate which the research I've seen online- I'm 5"5 and 129lbs, but was extremely out of shape- I could barely get through the first few workouts! I imagine it's in the right ballpark, I am usually sweating and grunting and putting forth all my effort the entire way through. Sometimes I eat back my calories, sometimes I don't, but I am on day 7 today and seeing significant changes in my body for only having been doing it for a week. Loving it, and excited for Level 2... even more excited for day 30 when I get to see if my measurements have changed?

    From my understanding, one may not lose a significant amount of weight doing this, BUT they WILL lose a significant amount of inches. So be sure to be measuring while doing this. I know I will!

    I'm in the 160's and with a HRM I burn between 150 and 180 depending on the day, level and effort. I think that's about right for 20 minutes.

    ditto. it isn't only about WHAT exercise but also your effort. this range ^^ is where my HRM lands me each time.

    I use a HRM and typically burn between 120 and 140 per shred. I am 5'2" and weigh 131 pounds. Hope this helps :smile:

    I have a Timex HRM and from start to finish (Ive done the work out roughly 3 times now) it says I burn about 240-260 each time. Im 5'5" and weigh 140 pounds. I really think it depends how much youre putting in and how hard youre working. I know my heart rate was at 150 whenever I was doing cardio, about 70 on the downtime.

    Honestly Im confused by HRMs - I dont know how accurate it really is but thats what Im going with. I know people say to knock off 20% of the calories burned because sometimes its so much higher.

    Hi! Just thought I'd update this thread with my own stats in case it is helpful to anyone.

    I'm 5'4" 122lbs and run about 2 miles everyday.

    I use a polar hrm.

    Level 1 burned an average of 198 calories my first week.
