Wii Just Dance 3

I have just gotten back to working out a lot and was wondering how many calories do you burn doing the Wii Just Dance 3? I don't have a heart rate monitor and didn't use the Just Sweat portion.

Any help would be appreciated!

    I use the Wii Just Dance 2 and calculate calories by using the website http://www.healthstatus.com/calculate/cbc
    to calculate all kinds of activities. Also MFP has a few dance options for exercise already and I use that too

    I'm doing Just Dance 2014 and my heartrate monitor shows me burning around 1,000 calories for 90 minutes of play (about double what the game reports).

    I hope that helps :)

    I'm doing Just Dance 2014 and Zumba World Party on the XboxOne because of it's superior tracking. I would venture to guess that every song is about 20 cals, but really intense ones are about 30 cals. For me it takes about 4 songs or sometimes 5 songs to burn off 100 cals. An hour of dancing is going to be about 400 cals. 500 if you're really moving your parts/arms/hips, otherwise use 400 cals for an hour.

    I am using a HRM btw, the epulse2.

    Just keep in mind that weight and gender affects amount burned per minute of exercise
