Was wondering if you could add crossfit exercises into your database. I can find some of the exercises but for the most part not all of them. Thank you

You can probably figure it out for yourself using this formula

Weight (in lbs) * METs * Minutes performed * .008 = calories burned

I have a calculator that I created that which references values from the compendium of physical activities. The compendium gives "circuit training, including kettlebells, some aerobic movement with minimal rest, general, vigorous intensity" a MET level of 8. So, if you use the formula below, you can pretty much figure it out.

weight (in lbs) * 8 * minutes performed * .008 = Calories

Here is a link to my calculator: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AiRztSbbujdldDRmWUJuN29RRDI4UVlxbXp4dWdzUkE#gid=0 Just plug in your weight and minutes and you can estimate how much you burn in a crossfit session.
