Does anyone know the correct way to log this class? I've been using weights and it only gives me 183 calories for the hour, which seems low. I know there are a lot of factors involved with logging this class, but I would like a general estimate at least.

    183 calories is probably about right. There's no real cardio in that class, if any as I recall..

    What device gives you 183 calories?

    Or you manually log it as weights?

    Which you should do if it's weights no matter what. Depending on weight, it may indeed seem low.

    But - is the reps high 15-20 and rests below 1 min actually, moving between different lifts?
    That's circuit training in the database then.

    Thank you heybales. That's exactly what it is. I'll try that next time. I was manually logging it as weights, which I know was wrong because there actually is a good bit of cardio.
