Can anyone tell me calories burned from a kettlebell workout? I been trying to do 15 minutes with 2 breaks in between using a 15 lb kettlebell. Somewhere I read possible 20 calories per minute but I'm not sure if that is right.
Thanks for any help!

    wont beable to get a good answer, you would have to know how much force you use to move a given weight over so many reps, not even counting figuring out how many calories an hour you get on the after workout burn.

    I found a formula online years ago.

    I use a hear rate monitor now.

    The 20 calories per minute is usually for HIIT/Tabata training doing snatches.
