Hi! How are you able to determine how many calories you are burning on your Insanity workouts? I use the videos too, but don't have anything to use to keep track of the calories burned, but I know I'm burning them (especially when I hit the floor after the workout!) Thanks for your input. Congrats on making it to month 2 of the workout!0

Hey again all! Last week I was well over target, so I'm going to do something that for me is a little scary - but I'm going to up my goal!! I was at 6.2 kcal last week, with a goal of 4.5. Wish me luck!!
Thanks for posting again Tag!

I would imagine he's using a heart rate monitor, the most accurate way to get the calories burned. If you don't have one and can't invest in one (you can get a great basic Polar model for around $65) logging it here at Circuit Training, General is probably a good bet.0 -

I use a heart rate monitor and my 2nd half insanity workouts (MAX vids) all suggested somewhere in the 1200-1400kcals range (i'm 27, male, 220 lbs). I think that is high so I just assumed 900-1000 cals. My heart rate average was 150-160 or 80-85% of my max. I got a sportline duo heart rate monitor (with chest strap) from ebay for $25 and it has worked for over a year without incident.0 -
