    Under cardio there is an option for TaeBo!

    I googled Tae Bo to see if there was any information out there on calories burned. What I found said an hour of moderate Tae Bo can burn up to 700 calories! That's A LOT of calories, but I believe it to be true based on how you're always moving, it is high energy, etc.

    I usually see how MFP compares to what I've read online and go somewhere in the middle (though I think it is pretty close based on what I've found).

    sometimes if you dont type it in exactly how it in the database it does come up with nothing. You can always put it under Kickboxing :o)

    Well my HRM w/ Belt shows 612 calories burned and I did 55 min, I just typed an A and looked through everything and it didn't show taebo so i guess i will add it

    See. I KNEW Tae Bo burned a ton of calories. I've been going to the gym for over a year now and Tae Bo Live Advanced STILL kicks my butt. LOL

    Excellent burn!!! It is under Cardio as Tae Bo...
  • Hey! It's in the database as "Tae Bo" with a space between tae and bo :) Have Fun!! It is a great workout! :)
  • I don't believe that Billy Banks Tae Bo burns 700 kCal in 55 mins. I'd say 400 max! I do Nell McAndrew's aerobics and it is more intense but I only log 400 for it
