    My favorite class!! I go 2-3 times per week :) Has had amazing effects on my body, I've been doing it for more than 6 months regularly now, I use to have cellulite on the back of my thighs and I now have no cellulite and lean legs. I absolutely love this class and believe it is the reason for most of my results. Keep at it and you will be amazed! I never use to be able to do even a few lunges and now I get through the whole lunge track no problem! LOVE that burning feeling :D Enjoy!

    I've been doing body pump twice a week for about a year and a half. It has toned practically every muscle and I have and the classes are really fun. I lift heavy weights and really push myself but wearing my HRM I only burned just over 200 calories so 600 is an estimate for some people depending on their fitness levels. It's not much of a cardio workout anyway, it's all good toning. Good luck!!

    I don't use an HRM but I estimate my calories to be in the 300-400 calorie range. Just wanted to ask you if you keep your HRM on after your workouts as well, because with weight lifting, you are still burning calories afterwards quicker than usual!
