I do several different reps of kettlebell "swinging" that I learned from a friend and the instruction sheet. However, I can't find any matches for 'calories burned' in the lists on here. Anyone know any details?

    I just use my HRM for my kettlebell workout. I doubt you'll find anything close on any database due to the actual "work" you are doing, including breaks, circuits, different moves, etc.

    I've read up on this and they say that kettlebell swings burn off about 20 calories per minute. Since I'm below the "average" 150 pound person they often figure this amount on, I count as 16 per minute. Definitely a good workout! I just manually added kettlebells to my exercise log.

    Aerobics General is my go-to answer for any exercise I am unsure about.
