Calculating exercise calories

Hi,
I just downloaded this app and I was wondering if there's a way to calculate the calories burnt during exercise on this app when adding a particular exercise to your diary.

(Example: barbell bench press/80kg/3 sets/8 reps)

    Log duration of your entire workout under the Cardiovascular section of your diary as "strength training" for a very rough estimate based on METS and your weight.

    The Strength Training part of the diary is just that - a diary with no calorie functionality.
