    Well it’s an estimate not an am exact calculation. Most people here feel the estimates are high.

    Depends on you, depends on the particular workout - there isn't one simple answer depending on what your personal selection of exercises from a huge selection is.

    There's a general problem of giving gross calorie estimates instead of net calories though.

    Often there are better / more accurate ways to estimate your exercise but again that depends on what exercise you personally do. Sometimes a rough estimate from the database is fine or even low for some people doing some exercises.

    Eat all the calories from what you believe to be a reasonable net calorie estimate for the particular exercise you are doing.
