    Not accurate at all lol. Its more like 100 calories burned per mile.

    Leslie Sansone is great btw. I lost over 60 pounds with her!

    Waaaaay too high for a WATP video. It's low impact aerobics. I weight 148 and my tracker counts it as 257 calories burned for me. If I used my heart rate monitor, I bet it would be less than that. Awesome job with the workout, though!!! Keep it up!

    I would suggest investing in a heart monitor when using any workout dvd to get a more accurate calorie burn. I work out with Jillian Michael and was told to input circuit training but that is only about 222 for 20 min. With my heart monitor on, I found out I burn way more than that. I find myself challenging myself with each workout with it on.

    At your weight it's probably about 120 kcal/mile, so ~350ish is probably closer to the truth.

    It sounds like the app is in metric and thinks you weigh 189 kilos maybe?

    I'd expect to burn approximately 600 calories running 10k.
