    There's an option for tae bo so log it under that. You should really consider investing in an HRM though so you get a more accurate count of calories burned.

    It's called Tae bo..type that in instead :) I do tae-bo 4-5 days a week and during the inital workout, I burn 600 cals (45 min) and continue to burn at a VERY high pace (around 2000 in addition) for 2 hours after. These dvd workouts are insane on calorie burning (I wear a heart rate monitor/calorie burn monitor). My 2 favorites are the fat blastin cardio and the bootcamps elite series mission 2. Those, to me, give you more "bang for your buck".

    Hi i've just started doing tae bo dvds i use a HRM & it tells me i burn around 380 cal for 30 min workout. I would log it under aerobics it won't be exact but then again none of the values are :)

    I have done tae bo and kempo x and I log them in as kickboxing. It actually says turbo jam included when you type it in. Hope this helps!

    Collagevideo.com may come in handy for this .....


    "This is Tae Bo" is listed as high impact aerobics for 33 minutes and aerotone(think circuit training) for 10 minutes. Warm up & cool down are 8 minutes total - you could use low impact aerobics for that.

    Look up your DVD (I write this info on an index card so I don't have to look it up every time).

    you may need to add it. i added turbo jam: cardio party, lower body workout, body sculpting, ab jam, and 20 min workout. you should be able to find turbo jam.

    I just love Tae Bo!:heart: I have too many Tae Bo tapes to count! I can always count on Billy when I get bored with any new workout! I lust log it under tae Bo in the exercise diary. I wish I could get a heart rate monitor....but not in the plans right now.
