Ok here goes... I have a great workout dvd called Crunch Fat Burning Pilates... It is about an hour long with 30 min of cardio pilates and 30 min of kind of intense pilates... how do I know how many calories I burned? How would I log it?

    I'm using the same video - trying to figure it out. Keep me posted!

    This can vary widely depending upon your gender, age, size, and fitness level

    That said .... pilates nets me about 150 calories for 1/2 hour (I'm 5'5" medium fitness level, weigh 145) ... not a real big calorie burner ... but I love the toning benefits!

    OK update - collagevideo.com calls this video 25 minutes cardio / 13 minutes floor toning and 2 min cool down. You could log 25 min low impact aerobics and 15 minutes pilates. I like using the graphs on collage to get a feel for times, impact level, etc.

    Your welcome!

    I love for collage for all the detail it provides. I will copy & paste the little graph thingie (into MS Word) - print it out & put it in my DVD case....that way I don't have to look it up each time.
