I just did the Billy Blanks Tao Bo Power workout ..which I then went to a calories burned website ..that has a calculator ....entered in 48 minutes of Tae Bo Vigorous (cuz that is DEFINETLY a work out) and it computed

1187 calories burned.
Does that sound right?
Are we REALLY burning that many calories?
Any input on this would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks! Laurie

    I don't think there is any way that can be right. My guess would be in the ballpark of 500 calories max depending on your size/weight.

    I agree. I doubt it burned that much. I'd guess an hour of INTENSE cardio probably ranges from 500-700 calories depending on the individual and the workout....

    HOWEVER... I'm a HUGE fan of Billy Blanks workouts- especially the Ultimate Bootcamp DVDs. I'd guess you're closer to the 700/hour end with his workouts.

    Thanks ladies! I had computed in 791 calories burned after doing the workout in my daily log so I'll be sure to stay well under the extra 91 calories or so, which I normally do on a day I work out anyways.
    Thanks again!
