You may want to purchase a heart rate monitor. That might give you a close estimate.0

I'm 5'4" 139-ish lbs, I wear a Polar HRM when I do the Shred and I tend to burn anywhere from 200-240 depending on my energy/intensity.0

That's what I did until I got a HRM, and it's pretty close0 -
I have heard low impact aerobic to record it. I used my HRM and it looks like I burn around 120, I am 5'4, 110lbs.0
