This is a very difficult question to provide an answer for but I'll have a go.

Calories or energy is burned during every human activity. The more physically straining the activity, will inevitably lead to more calories being burned.

Although speaking for an hour is not even on the same scale as say, horsriding for the same amount of time, it still will burn up energy. Most probably a small amount, but it depends, because using up brain power also requires energy.

Weight loss and calorie burn through exercise is mainly about getting and keeping your heart rate up.

And pretty much all kinds of consistent activites, like running, bicycling, swimming, dancing etc etc does a better job of keeping your heart rate up than lifting weights does.

I can do around 1000 cal/hour during cardio, but find it really difficult to get past 600 while doing weight training.

Keep in mind that the big thing is your diet.

If you are overeating it's pretty much impossible to exercise hard enough to lose anything that way. A snack that takes 5 minutes to eat, like a cupcake, can take one hour to burn off.

How many calories burn doing half hour abs class?

This is a tough one and I hear this asked from me very often. The thing about calories burned in the gym is very hard to define, since there are so many different kind of programs that you have. Programs with higher volume tend to burn more calories, since they put your body to do a lot more work than doing a few repetitions with very high weight. On the other hand, real strength programs that are developed to build pure mass for you is known for the fact that you don't really burn that many calories during the weight training, but your muscles take nearly two to three days to recover, which burns calories over time.The median answer that I got from five different sources was that going to the gym burns 400-500 calories in an hour, which is 200-250 in half an hour. This of course isn't an exact value, but is fairly accurate.
