Hey I just started Jillian's 6w6p, and I was wondering what would it be under so I can track it on my excersie chart?

your closest bet is aerobics, high intensity. until i had a HRM thats what i tracked my JM workouts as.

There may not be an entry for it in the database. The best thing would be to get a heart rate monitor. This way you can set it up and it will calculate your calories burnt based on your heart rate. It will a lot more reliable and accurate than MPF's calculations. And if you get one use it for every time you exercise.
I have a Polar FT7 which is great and the brand seems very popular. There are some cheaper ones so if your on a budget go for them. Look on Ebay for second hand ones or ones going cheap even.
Hope this helps

I gave up and got a HRM. It reads WAY different than MFP estimates. Maybe circuit training?
