Weigh lifting / calorie count

karlja1965

How does one calculate calories burned by weight lifting? I do an hour or so of "cardio" (high rep / low weight) weights, but have no idea how it should be calculated. Help!

I purchased a heart rate monitor to determine the calories I burned while I was doing the workout. There is no way of calculating the calories you burn during the "resting period" though.
