it's hard to estimate something like that, because how hard you work directly affects how many calories you burn. you can limp through it, or you can nearly make yourself sick by working too hard. personally, I use a heart rate monitor with a chest strap, and I've burned anywhere between 600-900 calories on any given day.

The amount of calories you burn doing anything involves many factors including how much lean body mass you have (muscle vs. stored fat). Two people who weigh the same doing one hour on the treadmill at the same rate can differ in calories burn by a few hundred depending on lean body mass. Stored fat just sits there waiting to be called on for energy. Muscle requires constant fuel even when it isn't doing anything. The more fit you are the more calories you burn working out.

Age, weight, gender and other factors affect your calorie burn. Get a heart rate monitor that calculates calories if you can. That will help a lot. You will enter your body parameters into the device and it will give a you calorie information. You wear it like a watch. I know that you are in still in school and money may be tight.

yeah, so don't get a strapless one. the chest strap may be a pain, but none of the strapless ones can provide you with continuous realtime readings, or estimate how many calories you burned.

It would depend on your body weight, etc. You really need to get your diet in order, then do the exercise, then everything will take care of itself. Trying to count calories burned for a specific exercise is probably not the best approach.

I got that # off of my BodyBugg. Its kind of like a HR Monitor but it doesn't estimate your HR, instead it does calories burned and steps. Its kind of pricey though and there is another monitor that uses the same technology but is cheaper called GoWearFit.

I usually try and shoot for a 500 calorie deficit

Re:How many calories are burned with Kenpo X? 8 Months, 1 Week ago Karma: 0  
On the whole Kenpo calories topic, I just wanted to chime in

My husband and I use Polar brand heart rate monitors. They come with the chest strap and a myriad of bells and whistles, one of which is calorie tracking based on age weight, sex and of course..dun dun dunnnh Heart rate.

My average overall for the workouts is 667. (Inc. the non-cardio ones)

Kenpo 580
Plyo 760

and this one surprised the heck outta me

Cardio X 722 Who knew?!!??

I know its not exactly a perfect science, but either way, if you are pushing, you are burning and you WILL notice improvements as you progress with the program.

Side note: Husbands numbers are a lot higher than mine, I try not to be jealous....honest lol

Re:How many calories are burned with Kenpo X? 7 Months, 2 Weeks ago Karma: 2  
It's impossible to say with specificity for any given individual. The good news, however, is that there's been observed a fairly strong linear relationship between heart rate and calories burned, so we can estimate fairly well simply by using the average heart rate.

Try this website: http://www.triathlontrainingblog.com/?page_id=483

For V02max, I have not tried to estimate it, but I used the following table and found 45 a good estimate as I am in fair cardiovascular shape for a 27 year old male: http://www.brianmac.co.uk/vo2max.htm

For my age, weight, sex, and average heart rate, I typically burn about 800 calories in Kenpo, and at least 1000 in plyo....

Personally with my heart rate monitor Kenpo burns around 700 calories. This is at maximum intensity, no breaks, and weights added to my wrists and ankles. Oh, and I am 215 pounds with about 185 pounds of lean mass.

Plyo is more like 800 for me.
