Do not listen to the instructor – trust your monitor! Instructors always tell you that you’re burning more calories, so you come back.
One thing you should remember is to subtract the calories you would burn anyway – your body burns calories for basic functions like breathing, heartbeats, digestion, etc. Find out your BMR (prevention.com has a calculator, as do many other sites), and subtract that from the calorie read out on your monitor.
