Weight training calories burned?

ChiJenn

Anyone have any idea how I can account for the calories burned during a weight training session lasting about 45 min. which includes 9 different sets with 12 reps each? I am totally sweating, I must be burning calories, just can't figure out how many were burned? Thanks so much!

If you figure it out let me know?!?! So hard to figure and find information on it. Sometimes I wear a heart rate monitor and measure it as a cardio activity that way. I have the same trouble finding calories burned for all sorts of manual labor type stuff so sometimes I use the "heavy cleaning" and add in the time to figure out an estimate.
