Hi, I could never figure out how many calories this burns i have two 5 pounds dumbbells that i do reps with, i do about 100 reps on each arm but sometimes i do all sorts of reps with them on my arms and dont know how many calories it will be?
anyone know? or is it under the excercises on here under a different name? i couldn't find anything I was surprised it wasnt there.

Strength training burns calories way after you have exercised and not just at the time of doing them.0
