Crossfit, Olympic lifts and other exercises not listed...

Is there any way they can add Crossfit specific exercises? They don't even have oly lifts, rows, KB swings and have only one deadlift variation. Haven't been on the site long, but like what I see besides the strength training options. Also, there are so many types of yoga and very few listed.

Yes, just make up your own exercises and calorie estimates.

That's what I needed to do, because the MFP numbers were way off for me.

I know, but I was thinking of things such as toe 2 bars and thrusters. Maybe even certain WOD's like the benchmark WOD's.

You're better off using other Apps to track that type of stuff. I use an App called MyWOD to track the WODs I do and one called GymACE to track the strength exercises I do. GymACE to me is the most important because I can track my weight and reps for various exercises (creating new ones is easy) and then next time we do those exercises I know what I did last time and can try to match it or beat it. Same with the WODs, but so far, we don't seem to repeat WODs at all.

I do have a custom Cardio exercise in MFP I use to track my Crossfit Calorie burn. I get that from a Polar M400 and HR monitor that I wear when I workout. I don't eat those calories (I use TDEE) but I like to see what I did and compare intensity from day to day.

i just go with 'circuit training' and call it a day. if there's a wod with a lot of running/rowing you could always add those in separately. it's close enough
