I just did Bob Harpers biggest looser power walk 3, it has skaters, jumping jacks, jogging running in it too. Also I did Bob Harpers body conditioning workout which was all leg workouts. How to log these workouts? Thanks

    could you log it as circuit training?

    I am not sure, I do log Jillian michaels ripped in 30 as circuit training but as this is all on your feet walking jogging running I am not certain where best to place it. :/

    circuit training or aerobics or get a heart rate monitor and log it manually. When I started using an HRM, I realized the calories burned on MFP was much higher, so keep that in mind if you eat back your exercise calories.

    I've not done Bob Harper's but when I'm doing Insanity (HIIT) I've been using Aerobics: High Impact. It's been giving me numbers close to that which online calculators say I should be burning for my level of activity.

    which calculator do you use?

    I use this ( http://insanitycalories.com/ ) one now but a few others were giving me the same idea. I never say that I've been working out with high intensity even if I probably have.
