*Calories burned based on 190 pound male or female and one hour of activity. If you weigh less you will burn slightly fewer calories during activity--especially in weight bearing excercises like dancing, running, walking or yoga. If you really want exact calculations go to the following site where you can enter your weight and the duration of excercise: http://www.primusweb.com/fitnesspartner/jumpsite/calculat.htm
