Calculating Calories Burned?

BodyRockerVT · November 2010

So my husband showed me this new site and she has some seemingly great work outs http://www.bodyrock.tv/category/daily-workouts/

The problem is I have NO idea how to calculate what calories I burn doing that....?

Anyone have suggestions or help? I am not sure I can afford one of those expensive calorie burn meter things so what other options have I got?

I was just looking for info on calories burned for squatting. I found this site which may or may not help - maybe it can give you an approximation:

this site may have something similar to what you are doing

otherwise you can get a cheaper version of the hr watch at walmart for like $35 and it does your HR, calories burned based off of HR and weight and has a timer on it

so that would give you a decent estimate as well

The website www.healthstatus.com that is mentioned below is pretty good!! Someone posted it the other day in response to figuring out how many calories sex burns (?) It's on there with alot of others that you don' find anywhere else...even simple household stuff like ironing etc. It's worth a look....Good Luck!!

This one has a few options about how much calories certain things use up.
