Does anyone know how many calories you burn doing 60 minute of crossfit type of class?

    Looks pretty intense. Have you actually done this?

    The answer is probably - no, nobody knows.

    Suggest you log (under the cardiocascular section of the exercise diary) as "Circuit training, general"

    Thanks for the info everyone. It is intense but so worth it once you've gotten used to training this way. Have a great day

    You should do some research and google it. You will see calorie estimations are difficult at the best of times and are even more challenging with cross fit due to the individual nature of each burn, each participant and variation in exercises. You will find some calculators, but id suggest using a couple to see if they relate and then eating 50% back. You can then adjust from there. The circuit training suggestion would also be an ok start.

    Hard to say really. If it is a class, perhaps ask the instructor? My HRM died just before a boxing class & she said it's about 500-600 calories for the hour. If unsure, go with the lowest burn.
