Hi there!

Today I did my first 20 minute session of Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred and Level 1.

I was wondering if anyone knows how much calories I have burnt and how to log it as exercise?

I am 5 ft 4 and currently weigh 173.6 lb (12 stone 4).

I would be very grateful for any help as I am rubbish with maths and I can't seem to figure it out.

    I put it in under "Create an exercise" and used the equation that I found on livestrong.com and also elsewhere in MFP forums... to multiply your weight by 1.11

    Of course a more accurate way to know your calories burned is to buy a heartrate monitor, but the weight x 1.11 seems to be the best estimation otherwise.

    I use a HRM - burn around 180 - 190 a session.

    I put it under ''Circuit general training". Of course, HRM is the best way to know precisely :)
