It is not a ton less, but I am burning about 25-40 calories less on my HRM for level 2 compared to level 1.
Have only done it twice and don't like it at all!

    I don't have an HRM but that doesn't sound good! I did D1 L2 yesterday and felt like I was going to die. I sweated so much more than on L1. Do you feel like you are working harder and yet the calories burned are less?

    I just got my HRM in the mail yesterday. Will try it out and see. So far I've only done it on level 3.

    I am on Day 4, Level 2 and I am burning about 289 calories compared to level 1 which was closer t 250. I'm not a big fan of all the planks.

    I feel like I am working harder in terms of strength moves but less cardio maybe? I'm fine with it, but was curious,

    Well, the HRM told me I burned 17% more calories on level 2 than level 3. I am not sure how that's possible.

    I finally measured and level two burned more than level one. I think it's because L1 allows cool down time during abs as well as chest-flies. So for me it was L3 < L1 < L2.
