Hi,

Might be a stupid question, but what do others log Jillian Michaels 30 day shred as in their exercise tracker? Do you class it as circuit training? DVD? Aerobics?

    I looked at logging it as that but was a little worried that I would be overestimating the calories burnt by doing it like that! It's coming up as burning like 300 calories in 30 mins!! I suppose its all those god-damn jumping jacks that nearly kill me! lol

    I log most of Jillian's DVDs as circuit training, but definitely beware the overestimating of calories. MFP tells me that 30 mins burns 350 calories for me, but my Fitbit says its closer to 200.

    according to the dvd:

    1) circuit training.

    2) the work out itself is 20 minutes.

    3) total work out including warm up/cool down is 25 minutes.

    I log it as 20 minutes of circuit training. I know it's a bit longer than that but I'd rather underestimate than overestimate.

    Cheers, thanks everyone! I think I shall log as 15 mins of circuit training to be on the safe side (at the moment I can't manage all of the jumping jacks! lol)
