    Body pump is quoted by the company as being 600 calories but when I wear a heartrate monitor I usually clock up around 300-400.

    Are these numbers closer to your circuit training numbers in the MFP exercise database or strength training? I am not sure how to log in body pump!

    Really the best way is to get a heart rate monitor. It can vary pretty wildly. I guess it is closest to circuit training, but their estimate is pretty high to me. I personally burn from 350-450 depending on how hard I push myself.
