I've seen lots of different calorie burn estimates on the 'net. Just looking for a typical calorie burn for logging on MFP.
My typical session comprises all the basic swings, clean and presses and also Turkish Get-Ups, and some calisthenics in between KB sets like burpeess, mountain climbers, skating, rope jumps to keep the pulse rate up.
250 for 30 minutes?
edit: changed 300 to 250 calories, last line.

This completely depends on your stats - what I burn as a 5'3, 150lb female won't apply to you.0

Ah OK - male, 5'3", currently 163 fat overweight and ideally I guess around 140 lean, age 53 and good cardio.0

I always logged it as circuit training, because I hardly rested.0

Maybe log it in as 'circuit training' and that'll cover it.0

HRM?0

HRM not relevant to HIIT, but thanks.
I'll look at circuit training and input as I find, thanks.0 -
OK, not a good idea. Well, I'm just saying, it's not en exact science, the whole calorie counting thing. A lot of variables in every number, so pretty much any number, food or exercise, is an estimate. What is amazing though is that it still works.0

That's true.0
