Estimate of calorie burned withe Cathe DVD's?

[syreetap]

I am Cathe fan and I have several of her dvds. I'm currently a heathly weight but would like to lose 10 pounds. I started a diet and exercise plan two weeks ago and I need to log calories in and out. I would like to know does anyone know or have a guesstimate of the calories burned in a few of Cathe dvds? If not any suggestions on how I can go about finding out.

Any advice is greatly appreciated...

BTW - The dvds that I have are boot camp, muscle endurance, kpc, kick max, drill max, legs & glutes

I think all of those but muscle endurance are big calorie burners, probably 500+. A heart rate monitor would be the way to go get a better estimate.

If you plug your workouts in the Workout Manager, it will give you a calorie estimate. But it won't be totally accurate, it will only give you an average. I use a Polar heart rate monitor, and the WM estimates are always higher than my Polar numbers. However, I am short (5 ft tall) and about 130 pounds so I am smaller (or at least shorter!) than the "average" woman, which is what I assume these numbers are based on.

I would think calories burned would depend on alot of things....your current fitness level, your height/weight, how much effort you're putting into your workout, the step height, maybe even the temp of your workout room..

I am 4'11/115 lbs and I use a Polar F4 HRM so I know my calorie burn for every workout. In all of her workouts I burn 500-550 calories. I have burned close to 600 for Low Max. If you want to know an exact I would suggest purchasing a HRM that also gives you your calorie burn. Good luck and I hope this helped

Calories burned is rather individual, as it depends on your weight, fitness level and other factors. I suggest getting a heart rate monitor, as some others have said. I just used my trusty Polar HRM today (it is the type with a chest strap, which I feel is more accurate than some other designs), and I burned about 540 calories on Drill Max's Cardio Leg Blast premix.
