Hey All! I just started the 30 day shred this week and wanted to know on average how many Calories do you think you burn on Level 1. I wanted to add it accurately to MFP.

If anyone has an idea, I'd greatly appreciate any advice!

Mahalo!!! Tina

    Recommendations I have seen is to log as Circuit training, general for 20 minutes.

    It depends on your current weight I think. I have entered it as circuit training (20 minutes). Hope this helps x

    You weigh exactly what I do so I can venture we would be about the same. Now, I count warmup and cooldown in my calorie burn... Level 1- around 250-260 Level 2- 280 Level 3- 280-290

    The better you get at it I would go on the lower end of the spectrum or if you are resting/not doing all the moves. But that has been my average. Good luck!

    (my results are from my heart rate monitor that I use every time)

    I read in an old thread that you would set it up as a proportion using the weight and calories provided elsewhere.

    154 = (weight provided)
    503 = (calories burned by above in one hour)
    Your Weight = your weight
    # of calories YOU burn = X

    154 Your Weight
    ____ = ____________

    503 x

    Then you solve for x by multiplying across the equal sign:

    154x=Your weight X 503

    So let's use my weight:

    154x = 265 x 503
    154x = 133,295

    divide by 154

    x= 865 calories an hour

    I do it for 20 minutes, which is a third of an hour, so 865/3=288

    So 288 calories in 20 minutes.

    Sorry if that is confusing, if you need help I can do it for you.

    My HRM says I burn between 150 and 200 each time, which is fewer calories than MFP gives me for "circuit training-general." I weight around 130 pounds, if that makes a difference. Hope you're enjoying the workout!

    I would go with this. It does depend on how much effort you put into it, but I was consistently around 250ish, at least on level 1.

    on my HRM, for 30 mins including warm-up and cool down it was about 200 calories..but im a guy and weigh 189 lbs...im certain this would vary from person to person. using a HRM would yield you the most accurate results!

    According to my HRM i burn anywhere between 250-280 for each level. It depends on how hard I am working that day. I'm also 198 and not in the greatest of shape lol. Someone who is, say, 150 would burn less calories then me

    I would recommend getting a HRM to get an accurate result. I burn about 250-280 during level 1 (5'1 and 155lbs). Level 2 is TBD.

    Just add another cardio circuit to the end and you'll be there!
