    I've been logging it in under circuit training and it comes up around 229 calories burned for 20 minutes. My friend has a HRM and is on level one. She burns around 230 calories. I think she weighs around 180lbs.

    I'm 5'3", 139. I log it as 20 minutes circuit training (168 calories). I manually reduce it to 150 calories. I'd rather be under than over.

    I looked at other people's records, using HRM, and log it at about 280 calories.

    I don't have HRM but in the past I have I logged it as circuit training, then logged in each of the muscle groups I worked separately. I prefer the 164 cals rather than logging it as something different and it overestimates. I lost weight successfully logging it in as Circuit training. Hope that helps
