How would you add Insanity as an exercise? I feel like I can't find anything similar to categorize it as. Please help...thank you!

    I have no idea :( I use a Bodymedia Armband while I do it and I burn around 350 per workout.
    The only caveat I can give you is that the first month videos do not burn 800 calories (like some websites and some people suggest).

    Im curious though what people log it as on here!

    I just enter it as High Impact Aerobics. It says I typically burn between 300-400 calories. I dont have a HRM to compare, so I just assume it's close. I FEEL like Im burning 10,000 calories in month 2, though! lol!

    I use my HRM to determine the calories burned and create a new exercise with the DVD title.

    TOTALLY!!!

    I've just started but I just use circuit training and enter actual calories from my HRM but I do like Aloha311's idea of creating a new exercise with the workout title.....may start doing that instead.

    I do the same.

    I created my own. I found a formula online that calculates calories burned based on your heart rate.
