    I'm not sure...not very many. From my experience, most core workouts don't burn too many calories.

    I agree, not enough. In our class we do four 30 sec. planks, by the time I do the second set the sweat is pouring off me.

    My guess would be about 10-15 calories - not very much! There's a great site if you're interested or haven't checked it out yet: caloriesperhour.com:smile:

    I know it's not much - sure does FEEL like a lot, doesn't it? I suck at side planks...wish I could hold those longer. :grumble:
