    For your best results you are going to want to get a heart rate monitor and use that. For now, I use high impact aerobics for most days and general aerobics for the recovery and CCB and abs, but I have found they are low - I had days in month 2 where I was close to 1000. That being said, it didn't much matter because I didn't eat back my calories, it was just for my own FYI

    I wore a calorie counter when I did INSANITY and I burned anywhere from 300-450 calories. Age 37, weight at the time, 5'3" female.

    It totally depends on your height, weight, and intensity levels. I am 5'7", 195 lbs, and have serious trouble keeping up with the second round of the actual insanity business, and I burn between 350-400 a workout.
