How many calories does 30 minutes of pilates burn?
I do a pilates video at least 3 times a week, and i can't find anything comprable in MFP to count the cals burned. Its a pretty difficult exercise...you use your abs to hold yourself in difficult positions, etc. How many calories do you think 30 minutes of pilates burns?
