BFBM=HRM results

Options
Banish Fat Boost Metabolism-Jillian Michaels .Anybody with an HRM around the 130 lb mark that can tell me approximate calorie burn? I know there are variations based on the intensity that an individual would lend to the workout . My budget currently does not allow for an HRM and don't feel that the site gives an accurate way to log this workout.

    The last time I did the workout I was at 147 and burned 451 calories. It was very close to what this website says (usually its way over for my workouts) But those last 2 circuits is where I burned the most and my heart rate got to 174.

    It was about the same as circuit training.

    yeah baby!! Great job...I'm 130 and 5'3 so guessin' it will be close to that as long as I keep up intensity?! Thank you so much for the update.

    Awesome....That's such a good workout...I think maybe I will just key in 400. so I don't guess too high.
    What ya'll think?

    that's probably a safe estimate? not really sure. i do know i was about to DIE from the 2nd or 3rd circuit on! i kept thinking, wait what circuit is this? how many more circuits are left? lol i can never remember! :laugh:
