I'm not sure if this will help or not:
They are similar to what we used to call squat thrusts. "Squat thrusts are usually included as part of a high-intensity circuit or a calisthenic workout, which burns about 298 calories in just 30 minutes for a 155-pound person." from: http://healthyliving.azcentral.com/squat-thrusts-weight-loss-11569.html0 -
Wear a HRM a few times to see about how many calories you're burning. I have a love/hate relationship with burpees. lol0
