What in the world do I log this as?

Alright, so I just got finished doing this. I've only been here for a week and haven't been logging exercise, just food and I've made sure to keep under calories. I had a slip up last night, well more like three a.m. and ended up going over my calorie amount and really would like to see if this exercise saved me - anyways what would you log this exercise as and if it's not an option, does anyone know the calorie burn amount?

Skip to 1:02 minutes in to see the actual exercise. It's walking in place, mixed with moving around and you move everything on your body all at the same time for about five minute intervals with three second breaks. If anyone knows this would be helpful! And no, the video title does not give any hint. It just translates to "The most effective and popular weight loss operation." :(

    in the database look for 'calisthenics' and pick the light effort option.

    PS Are you gorean?

    Thank you very much <3

    If that wasn't a typo, then yes I'm Gorean. (edit: That was actually a rather nice question compared to the usual, "are you a freak?" I don't think I've ever been asked that before besides one or two people who were Gorean.)

    That's cool :) Kinda rude of those people that asked if you were a freak.

    This is one of my favorite workouts, there are a couple hundred of these on youtube an they have them on different channels, though I don't know what providers support the channels. It's really fun and I like it because it's almost like dancing, just not exactly. It hurts a little more than it looks if you're not a super active person.

    @ Joylia: *laughs* Yeah, rude would describe most of the population when not on the internet and a good few on the internet. I just take it with a grain of salt, though I'm not use to being asked questions let alone someone paying attention to my profile. >w<

    @ Joylia: It's load of fun if you like dance-type workouts. Much better than basic crunches.
    @ mockchoc: *laughs* Was that do to wellbert's question? He must have clicked on my profile, sorry for the disappointment. <3
