Can anyone guess at calories burnt?
Hi all, I was reading a post yesterday about Body Pump classes and how many calories burnt and I've done one today and am not sure what to add it as.

My story from the last couple of years

I'm a 26 yr old Mum (3 boys) and over the last couple of years I've been trying to shed my pregnancy weight, plus all the extra kg's from…
