Some heroic efforts this last page, inspirational stuff!
Anyone know if there's a bro-science method of estimating how many calories are burned during a session? I'm keeping a close eye on my food intake as i'm trying to keep the fat off while putting some muscle back on, i've just been working off my normal calorie intake while making sure i'm getting at least ~1.5g/kg protein, but having no idea how much energy i'm expending I don't want to affect recovery.
I'm around 72kg & total weight shifted per session is usually around 7500 kg (usually 4 exercises 3x8) - i've seen online calculators that estimate your calorific burn based on time exercising but most of that time for me is rest, any ideas that don't involve 5 pages of equations?
