Palumbo, a mother of two who had her second child six months ago, said she was looking to lose that last 10 or 15 pounds.
Rossen brought in Dr. Tom Gill from Boston Sports Medicine, who put a heart rate monitor on Palumbo to count the total calories she was burning. Palumbo wore the monitor while performing 45 minutes of three different exercises - a jog along the Charles River, spinning and personal training.
The three workouts all came close, with jogging (394); spinning (424) and personal training (448) all within 54 calories burned.
