I do mostly fitness DVD's. Usually cadio with light 5lb. weight interval training. (Chris Freytag, for example). How would you calculate that? Thanks in advance.

    Anyone? I am not sure how many calories I am burning when doing cardio/light weight interval workouts.

    Your best bet is going to be to use a heart rate monitor. Otherwise, look through the exercise database and find something close (like calisthenics or aerobics) and use that. Consider taking 75% of the value given by the database since this would be a rough estimate.
