Insanity & HRM

Might be a bit of a silly question - I'm in my last week of insanity but only recently got myself a HRM. Do I wear it during the abs workout? I ask because apart from the warm up you spend the majority of the time practically sat on the floor. Will a HRM accurately calculate the cals burned?

    Sorry. I misread your post.

    I wore mine during the abs workout. The calorie burn wasn't huge but I figured since I was wearing it for the first workout I might as well keep it on.

    Yes wear it...as others state the burn isn't high but it goes by your heart rate and if you chest strap is on properly you should get a reading on cals burn..
