Yoga & Calories burned question.

  • I did Yoga for the first time ever today and absolutely LOVED it, but when I plugged it into The Daily Plate, it claims that I burned 495 calories in my hour. I find this VERY hard to believe since I didn't break a sweat and I'm pretty sure the heart rate wasn't up. How is this possible, and if it's incorrect, does anyone have a better guestimation as to how many you burn in an hour?
  • Spark people shows 240 calories.
  • logged into fitday, they gave it 203....Think I'll go with the lower, lol!
  • 203 calories sounds about right... I love too ... I got back into it after a 3 year hiatus...
  • I put in Yoga (hatha) and it said 225 so I went with that and deleted the 475 because that just didn't seem right to me.

    Thanks girls.
