    I usually lift right after running 3-4 miles, so my heartrate is already up. I am doing ice cream fitness 5x5 which usually takes about 25 minutes to do. With only 10-15 seconds of rest in between sets.
    My Tom Tom Spark HRM says I usually burn about 100 calories for every 10 minutes of lifting, when I piggy back off my run. If I lift alone it is usually about 75-80 for every 10 minutes of lifting.

    HRMs are not accurate for, or meant for lifting-unfortunately.

    And to add, that's not how it works anyway.

    And that too
