I use the machines at my gym and let them calculate; but when I do outside workouts I guesstimate in comparison.0

You can estimate the number of Calories burned per specified body weights for a number of activities at CalorieLab.
Once you have a rough estimate, you can use the MFP Exercise Diary to log your Cardiovascular exercises.
Read through the MFP Help pages for the FAQs on the topic of Exercise Diary and Exercise Database.

I use the Runkeeper app for most workouts and also use a chest strap heart rate monitor. Between the two of them I have a pretty good idea of the calories burned.0
