Calorie burn with weight machines

Hi all. I'm going to be starting using weight machines at the gym but I'm having difficulty figuring out how to record calories burned. I've tried searching phrases under the strength training section and, oddly, nothing comes up - perhaps user error?
I've also searched the prior discussions but am not finding anything. I'm expecting my routine will not have any aerobic component - just working my way through the various machines. Am I missing an obvious way to record this, or is it ultimately not burning enough to bother recording? Any thoughts on this (or pointing me to an obvious place that addresses it that I missed!) would be appreciated. Thank you.

Go into the cardio section and choose "strength training". That will give you your calorie burn for weight machines.5

Ahhh, thank you. I was in the wrong section - didn't think to look at cardio!0

A message to you, Rudie: yeah, it's under cardio as mentioned. Mostly, I just wanted to say I like you username.1
