    I use my MIO HRM, which includes the wrist and chest monitor, and for each level I burned between 200-240 calories.
    I entered my own exercise for each level & day I was on and added it in manually.
    Jillian is amazing!

    (edited to add more info about my HRM)

    How bad is that workout on the knees? Also, does a HRM do the same thing as a FitBit? Or, do you need both? If so, why? Thanks! Just trying to figure out what I should be getting!

    When I use my HRM, I burn about the same amount of calories that MFP calculates under circuit training. I'm usually around 200 for level I, 220 for level II and 200 for level III.

    If you find yourself wanting to mute her voice, don't be alarmed it's completely natural :laugh:

    Can you find HRM's at Walmart?
    Yes, I bought the SX Elite for under $50. Not too bad.

    My HRM says I burn anywhere from 175-250 per session. Depends on how hard I'm working that day. My husband burns more than me doing the same thing b/c he is taller and weighs 60 lbs more than me. It is very individual depending on your height, weight, fitness level, and effort.

    I have a Heart rate monitor and I average 125-160 for my 5'3 build, depending on hard I push myself. and I list it under circuit training. :) MFP states a higher calorie burn, then my HRM.

    I got my 30DS at Target for $10 and its kind of a love/hate situation :) I log it as circuit training and I work my butt off doing it so I think the calories burned are pretty acurate for me. I am staying within my calorie goals and losing weight so it can't be too far off.

    circut training..

    UNLESS you have your own heart rate mon.

    then you can add it yourself. and make it accurate to what you actually burn.

    GOOD LUCK! and have fun - it's a great work out

    Log it as circuit training. 20 mins (I dont count the warm up or cool down) Have fun with it! It's great
