Can anyone tell me what the calories burnt are for these types of exercise? I do both insanityband P90x quite regularly and I'm new to myfitnesspal.

    It all depends on your height, weight, age, and how much effort you are putting into the exercise. A VERY rough estimate I would use for insanity is about 300 or 350 calories per workout (month 2 workouts burn a lot more, recovery week video burns less, etc).

    I just put it under aerobics high impact. Use that estimate and make my own workout. It's nice until you get an actual HRM.

    Everyone is different, your best bet, is to invest in a Heart Rate Monitor. I have a Polar FT7, and absolutely love it!! Check around, you can usually find a great deal with free shipping, like Amazon. Good Luck!!
