    There's a calculator for it there. It will no doubt depend on the position, the weight of either partner, the vigorousness of the thrusting, and other variables - making it difficult to accurately calculate.

    You'll obviously burn more calories doing it like this...

    Well, with that first position you might be able to combine it with roadwork. I imagine you'd burn tons of extra calories lugging around the extra 50 or more kilograms. The second position is also doable - though your broad will develop very strong and manly shoulders if you do it too much.
