    I just log it under strength training in cardio. I probably burn more calories than it gives me credit for, but that's ok with me.

    I log it in as strength training as well as cardio. Since I have an HRM. I log my calories from that during the time I do Body Pump.

    You should create your own exercise. I recommend invseting in a heart rate monitor w/calorie burn. It will give you a better idea of the amount of calories you are buring over the exercises currently in the database. Body pump is a great class. I'm currently doign P90x!

    I log it as cardio. The Les Mills website says you can burn up to 600 calories, I log in 320 calories. I probably burn more than that, but i'd rather be conservative with the estimated calories. I love that class. I will be taking it in 2 hours!
