I know this has been asked before but I just did a 45 min beginner Pilates workout video and there's no Pilates in the database. Anyone who's ever done Pilates, what did you log it under that was most comparable?

    I did pilates this morning and I'll probably just log it as light/moderate calisthenics. Because, sure I "engaged my powerhouse" (rolls eyes) a lot, but I didn't really ramp my heartrate way up or anything.

    I just found a couple of sites that had calorie burning calculators with Beginner Pilates as part of their database. I entered it under the option here on MFP to add it to the database, but I'm not sure if it added to the community database or just my personal database. Anyway, you could check to see it it's there if you want to

    Not there for me, but at least you added it for yourself. :wink:

    And for anyone's future reference, beginner pilates calories burned are pretty much exactly the same as light/moderate calisthenics (as per a couple of other websites' calorie calcs). :smile: I figured it would be.
