    If you do a search on here for insanity -someone posted an equation you can use to work out exactly how many calories you are burning. Good luck! :)

    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!) :smile: Thanks for your input. Congrats on making it to month 2 of the workout!

    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.


    If you do a search on the board for INSANITY - someone posted an equation to use specifically for that and to determine calories burned. :) good luck! :)
