Cant find an exercise option that is comparable to a hot power vinyasa yoga... The only option for logging is hatha yoga, which isn't really comparable on the intensity scale. Anyone else doing intense hot yoga and if so, what kind of calories burnt do you log? TIA!

    I log hatha yoga and it shows 200 cal burned in 1 hr. I don't think I burn 200 cal so now I don't even log it because it distorts my calories showing I can eat 200 more calories. Or if I log exercise I do it at the end of the day. I would suggest one of the fitbits or something similar to get a more accurate count.

    I wore my heart rate monitor for my vinyasa yoga class tonight and it says I burned 370 kcal in 90 minutes (which is more like 70 minutes of actual work when you take away the long meditations at the beginning and end of the practice). I generally push myself quite hard; doing full chaturanga to upward facing dog each time, using downward facing dog instead of child's pose as my "rest" pose, etc.
