Kettlebell ~ calories burned?

Hi everyone! Do any of you with a heart rate monitor do kettlebell? Do you know a rough estimate of calories burned during a workout? Is there a website/data base I can look it up on?
Thanks for any help! :D

Well, how many calories you burn during a work out depends on so many factors. I can tell you that AOS Providence when I use a heavy bell and work it, burns as many calories for me as IMax 2. YMMV (your mileage may vary)
 
Thank you!:)
I know we are all different, so I was just hoping for a guesstimate! I did get some advice on another site for calorie calculating websites and data base so I'm going to check them out.
I really just want my own HRM!!!! :D
Thanks for taking time to read and post!

The type of workout you do with a kettlebell is going to vary the results dramatically, too. Doing pure swings gets my heart rate going pretty intensely that it burns a lot of calories. If you focus more on pure strength type of moves, it's not going to be as high.
