What do you log for Insanity for a calorie workout on here? I don't have a HRM yet so I know it won't be completely accurate but just curious what others log it as.

    I used High Impact Aerobics. I've heard others say 100 calories per 10 minutes, but that wasn't accurate for me.

    I use circuit training
  • high impact aerobics
  • I create my own entries and name them after each Insanity workout I do.

    Under high impact aerobics, that matches the actual heart rate monitor burn.

    Type in the name of the workout; a message will pop up that says it's not in the database, towards the bottom of the screen click on: Can't find what you're looking for? Add an exercise to the database. Then add in the name, time, and calories burned.

    wouldn't you need the HRM to figure out the calories? Or does it do it for you?
