Calories burned during workout

[Francis]

How many calories are burned during an average workout? Just free weights and 1-2 machines. No cardio.

I realy dont think someone could answer this because it depends on alot of things. Like....

How big you are
How much muscle you have
How much you are lifting
How hard it is for you to lift
How long your resting between sets
etc etc....

I dont think there realy is a average work out. Hmmm... anyone know?

You've got to burn a couple hundred. Unless your sittin around pickin your ass in there.

But, like Woodpile said, too many factors to consider.

try and keep moving between sets, rest the bodypart but dont sit down keep moving im not talking about jumping around or anything like that just walk around and DONT SIT DOWN!!! Youll burn more.

Also, when cutting, would it be good to do some cardio after a good workout, since the body would be in fat-burning mode? I guess it woul impede muscle growth a bit though.

After a good workout is a great time to burn fat. Your body has already used much of it's energy, now it's time to go after that stored energy(fat).
But, yeah, muscle will be affected.

If you do it after weight lifting take some HG carbs like 15g max. This will help to prevent muscle loss. You body loses muscle mass when it doenst have enouph carbs to burn the fat. So help it out a little.
