    Maybe get an HRM. I like this one fine.

    Then you can add your own exercise, etc. Good luck!

    I have a heart rate monitor now that I use but before that I'd just guess. Id only count the time i actually spent dancing (you know, you do 10 min of dancing and 5 min sifting through songs etc.) and then i'd just log it as general aerobics. Just dance has the exercise mode tho so you could use that in that game

    On Dance Central there is a "workout" mode and I believe that tells you how many calories you've burned.

    I am doing the same thing with my boys! I usually just keep track of how many minutes I am actually dancing and then choose the "dance-general" option on the data base. With the sports ones there is usually WII alternative and I use that. Seems like a lot of us are doing kinect I wish someone would put it in the data base.
