    Can you do P90x in the UK?

    Yep, I got the DVDs from Amazon and downloaded the sequence from somewhere. Didn't manage 90 days though as I got pregnant! Lol

    Core - 544 for 58 min
    Cardio - 646 for 60 min

    This is really helpful and close to what I burn think I have been burning too! Thanks!

    Nice to see something people can use.

    Just did Plyo the other day - Burned 721 calories in 57 minutes

    I start new exercises next week (start of week 5) It ROCKS ;)

    In the P90x literature, or more precisely, in the diet plan book, it says to calculate 600 calories per workout. From everyones responses, you could just use that as an average.

    Hi everyone,
    So I'm starting p90X this sunday, and I was wondering if anyone knows of an accurate calorie burn count for any of the workouts. I have done the workouts before, but it was only for a week or 2 and I couldnt continue. My old HRM was completely inaccurate!! I highly doubt I was burning 2,000 calories in one workout (I wish!) but I have heard everything between 400-1200. I am 5'2", 234 lbs with not all that much muscle (yes, I'm a weakling). If any of you are around my size and have recorded p90x calories burned, would you mind sharing some of your workout #s with me? I just want to get as accurate as possible. Thanks everyone, and keep pushing foreward!!! :wink:

    It varies widely based on the workout and your body. As a male, 6'0" and (at the time) about 180 lbs, I was burning anywhere from a few hundred up to more than a thousand. Kenpo X was the one that I really burned the most cals. on. I would often top a grand!

    Try getting a new HRM. My old Timex, which I got for, like, $30 worked just as well as a much more expensive one made by Polar that I had. Perhaps yours has just bit the dust.

    This is very helpful. What did you use to determine these numbers?

    Thank you.

    I bought a heart rate monitor. I found that it's the most accurate way to keep track of calories burned during a workout.

    If you Google " calories burned during p90x" it gives you a calculator for everything. You put in your weight how long you did it and the intensity, low, med, high, and then pick which CD you did. There's one for zumba too. I use them both!! Hope its working for you. Good luck!!

    Hey,

    Good luck! I have a P90X challenge group starting on Saturday as well! It all depends on intesity. Avg between 4 and 500 calories.
    Do it with a group to keep you motivated!

    When I was doing P90X, I used this website to calculate calories burned: http://p90xcalories.com/

    There's a website that you can put in your actual weight and what specific P90x workout you did for the day at a low/mid/high intensity and it gives you a pretty accurate count on calories burned. Its www.p90xcalories.com
    Hope that helps!
