How many calories does this burn?

I am 5'9" and weight 139 pounds. This usually takes me around 45 minutes, sometimes more. I have no idea what to log it as and was wondering if anyone wanted to take a guess at how many calories it burns! EDIT: Just to specify, the only weights I am using are 2 10-pound dumbbells. I'm a wimp.

60 dumbbell side lunges
30 dumbbell standing outer thigh lifts
50 lying outer thigh lifts

50 lunges (per leg)
50 squats

100 toes-in calf raise pulses
50 inner thigh criss crosses
30 inner thigh circles (per side)
50 sumo squats
20 plié squats
30 side hip raises (per side)
100 side heel-touch crunches
50 butterfly push-throughs
200 criss-crosses
60 second vacuum hold

I would log 45 minutes of calisthenics or something like that. You're never going to get precision for anything that detailed.0

How in the world do you fit that all in 45 minutes?
Rough guess, at your height/weight maybe 150-2000 -
Shoot. I'd log it as 45 minutes of circuit training if you fit all of this in.0

It usually takes closer to an hour or even more, I just don't want to log more calories than I actually burned.0 -

Whatever you put it's just an average based on your height/weight not your actual effort. Invest in a heart rate monitor.0

Well, I totally agree with logging it as circuit training but if you really want a number (And I would!) I would just start looking up each activity... I use Livestrong.com and a couple other sites but generally I just type into my search engine "How many calories does _____ Burn" and then go from there. I've found out all kinds of burns that way from standing at a bar in heels to working in a deli to snowblowing to even doing Karaoke!! Best of luck and let us know what you find!!0

Wow...that's 40 different ones..how in the world do you do that in 45 min or so?? Oh I see now you said a little over an hour or more...wow that's a lot of workout!0

50 deadlifts?
For heavens sake why?
Op I'd suggest you follow a program of progressive lifting.
Look at stronglifts 5x5

If you are able to get through 50 deadlifts in one day, regardless of how many other exercises you are doing that day, you are not lifting heavy enough to do you any real good in terms of strength training. You are not building muscle with this routine. You have two options:
-change this workout to something a bit more reasonable and up the weight you are lifting
-log the whole thing as jumping jacks, because with the weight you have to be moving to get through this, you are just doing cardio.
You should not be doing 50 deadlifts in a WEEK, much less a day. What is your goal?

OP, sometimes less is more. Use heavier weights and do less reps. There is no point doing 50-100 reps of the same exercise (well maybe cardio and endurance, but still, that's way too many reps)0

Now I'm confused because I thought OP was doing a body weight circuit workout.

How would one deadlift with body weight? She mentions several dumbbell exercises, but with the # of reps in the short time frame they can't be more than 5 lbs0

Even a body weight workout should be progressive. If you can do an exercise 50 times it is too easy. It won't really achieve anything except possible damage your joints via the repetitive motion.

-log the whole thing as jumping jacks, because with the weight you have to be moving to get through this, you are just doing cardio.
I agree with this. Look for calisthenics or something similar in the fitness tracker, because if this is taking you 45 minutes you're flying through everything.
Also, I would suggest picking 4-6 of these exercises a day and going through a circuit of those with heavier weights. If you're doing that many reps you definitely can lift heavier, and you'll see more muscles show up that way. If you want the cardio benefit you're probably seeing from this I'd say just go for running, biking, swimming, or jump rope....0 -
