Can anyone help with calories burned during a moderate TRX workout? Thirty minute session?
I appreciate any suggestions on what it would be or where to find it. Thanks all

    Completely depends on your gender,age, weight, level of fitness, exertion. Best way to measure is to wear a heart rate monitor ( chest strap) . For me, 37 female , 145 lbs in good shape it would burn around 300 calories if I worked really hard for the whole 30 minutes. Hope that helps

    I think 10 calories a minute for TRX for someone 145 pounds is a bit high. Just my opinion. I do an hour trx circuit with an instructor once a week and yes, it's a workout but I really don't think those moves are burning as much as you think. I usually just throw 100 in. I treat it like logging my weight lifting. Yes there is a calorie burn, but I don't want to overestimate.

    I treat TRX like a HIIT workout and my heart rate average is about 160-170bpm. So for me it is accurate, I burn more doing trx than on a 5km run,but I work really hard too

    It depends on what you do with the TRX. I have done pilates with TRX, circuit training with TRX, strength training, cardio. Completely different workouts, same tool.
