if you enter "strength training" under the add exercise/cardio option it will give you an estimate. You can also use this site:

That's a hard one because it depends on how heavy you're lifting, how many sets/reps, rest periods, how long, etc... Best way to know for sure is to get a heart rate monitor. It's one of the best investments I've made.0
