Um it depends on the exercise and intensity. Also, your own weight.

It all depends on what you are doing and the intensity of what you are doing. If you are doing yoga/pilates or weight training you aren't going to burn as much as if you were running or swimming. Your heart rate is a lot slower doing the weights or yoga than it would be during cardio activites. Also, if you were running at 4.5 miles an hour as opposed to running 7 miles an hour that would make a big difference as well. It also has to do with how much you weigh, and how much you exert yourself. A lot of cardio machines (treadmills, stationary bikes, ellipticals, etc) have electronic programming where you can type in your age, weight, etc and it will calculate it for you as you go. I'll list a website or two that can help you estimate how much you're burning but really there is no 100% accurate way of knowing, but i'm sure the estimates are pretty close! Good luck!

You're going to get mixed answers on this one. On one hand: if you did 6 - 10 min sessions you still work out for an hour and that's AWSOME. However, if you workout for an hour straight you get your heart pumping and keep it pumping. Most fitness people will tell you that the longer you keep your heart rate up the more you burn. It increases, according to most theories. So, if you burn 15 calories in the first 10 mins, 20 in he second 10 mins and 25 in the next you burn more by working for an hour straight. Don't use my numbers, different exercises, weights, body type, and age will change how much you burn. But the point is your ability to burn calories increases the longer you maintain an increased heart rate. Hope that helps!

If you run 8 to 9 km/hr you can burn around 400 calories on a treadmill.

This totally depends on how hard you are working, your weight and your muscle mass. On average you can burn about 300 calories per half hour of cycling or running at a mid pace. But it depends on how hard you are working throughout that time.
