There are a ton of Pinterest workouts I want to do. How do I know how many calories I burned put into my fitness pal?

    Find something comparable and log that instead. All of the exercise entries in MFP are based on MET (metabolic equivalent task), so two exercises that share the same MET burn the same number of calories. If it is a bodyweight exercise routine you could use calisthenics. There are more complete tables of METs, so you can always browse those to figure out what is comparable.

    You type in the actual exercise to the database....for example a month long squat challenge. You do the squats, see how long it takes you and type in body weight squats 25 minutes.
