It's all ballpark, but hear me out. When I use a treadmill, 10-12mins gives me about 150 calorie burned. Everyone and everything tells me that's very optimistic, so I halved it to 150 calories burnt to 20 mins of running.
Rowing again is hard to validate, but I've read it going from something like 80-150 calories based on your intensity (reps and also resistance and stroke length). I was rowing pretty vigorously so I put it at 100 calories for 10 minutes.
Calisthenics is a hard one as it varies by exercises, but typically seems like 50-100 seems like a good ballpark. Out of all three the calisthenics exercises probably give me the hardest heartbeats after.
After all that said, I decided to total it up to a more conservative approach. Most people typically overestimate how many calories they are burning so I want to not do that so I don't end up patting myself on the back and go eat a box from fried chicken from LA chicken after every workout
