    I used to put it as "dancing" but I got a HRM and will use that to figure out how many calories I burned.

    you would use their database as dance or an HRM you'd create an exercise and add the cals. burned.

    I thought you were telling everyone to dance so they could burn 2 calories. I was confused.

    I do the same thing. I burn between 300 and 400 calories in an hour.

    Thanks! That's kind of what I figured but I wasn't sure if the Dancing, general would be accurate or not. Don't have $$ for an HRM right now but wanted an idea! Thanks again everyone.

    Hi everyone! I have one comment, I think that the "4.2 for every calorie" is VERY inaccurate. I usually get 300 sweat points for a 2:20 minute song, doing the math, that would mean that every 2 seconds you burn a calorie. I'm not trying to be mean, just correcting. I don't know what the actual "Sweat Point" to calorie calculation would be, maybe something like 20, but I pretty positive it's not only 4.2

    Buy you a watch that counts calories and add whatever calories is on your watch to this site. I brought me one at sears for 47 dollars.
