    How to track Jillian Michaels DVDs in MFP
    **JILLIAN'S WORKOUT TYPES BY TITLE...

    The Biggest Winner Series(all) = cardio @ high intensity
    30 Day Shred = circuit training

    Banish Fat Boost Metabolism = cardio @ high intensity
    TBL Power Sculpt = circuit training
    TBL Last Chance Workout = circuit training
    Yoga Meltdown = circuit training
    Shred-It = circuit training (use a kettlebell or dumbbell)
    6 Week 6 Pack = strength (so you can track each exercise in the workout)
    Ripped in 30 = circuit training

    There may not be an entry for it in the database. The best thing would be to get a heart rate monitor. This way you can set it up and it will calculate your calories burnt based on your heart rate. It will a lot more reliable and accurate than MPF's calculations. And if you get one use it for every time you exercise.
    I have a Polar FT7 which is great and the brand seems very popular. There are some cheaper ones so if your on a budget go for them. Look on Ebay for second hand ones or ones going cheap even.
    Hope this helps :)

    I gave up and got a HRM. It reads WAY different than MFP estimates. Maybe circuit training?
