Just Dance for Wii - how should I log my calorie burn?

So... I treat this game like aerobics. I have some lower impact songs I use as warmups, and but the majority of the time I opt for higher impact songs that keep me jumping, kicking, arms a-goin'... Basically, they keep my heart rate up and my whole body constantly moving with my feet off the floor a lot! Should I log it as dancing, aerobics, or is there a better way to accurately calculate my calorie burn than using the calculators on the website? Would love your input.

    I use my HRM with Just Dance.. also use my weighted gloves lol. That would prob be the most accurate way to know what you're burning.. Believe me it's worth the investment..and you can find decently priced ones on amazon (like i did!). enjoy!

    Thanks, guys! I've never even heard of weighted gloves - love that idea, though. I love making things a bit more challenging :)
