Hello all!
Does anyone have any idea what the calorie burn for the Jillian Micheals Banich Fat Boost Metabolism might be?
Even just a ballpark estimation would be brilliant!
I do this 4 times a week (unless I'm having another "month off") and would love to know why I'm not shedding lbs...
Thanks

    Probably a lot less than you think. Is it like circuit training? How long do you do it for? It'll depend on your weight as well, but rough guess I'd say 150-200 for a 30 minute circuits session.

    You're not shedding pounds because of what you're eating.

    It's a 50 min session, can I assume it's about 300 calls then?

    I just finished 36 minutes of BFBM and according to my HRM, I burned 316 calories. I'm sure I'd burn at least another 100-150 in the last 15-20 minutes! Hope this helps :)

    HRMs only approach accurate caloric estimates for a narrow range of steady state cardio activities. Interval based workout DVDs are not a category of exercise that HRMs can accurately estimate caloric burn for.

    Yes - it's circuit training (the vast majority of Jillian DVDs are).........

    HRM's aren't designed for circuit training
