Hey, I can't seem to find an entry in the exercise database for a kettlebell workout- can anyone help?

    Well kettlebells are weights so you could add it into strength

    although if you wanted to get a calorie burn from them then you'd probably have to log it by type of exercise within the kettlebells eg squats etc

    really depends what you did with them tbh

    I don't bother logging it as I couldn't find it either. I don't know how much a kettlebell workout burns so I just don't log, I don't bother eating back exercise calories anyway.

    kettlebell isn't a workout, it is a piece of equipment. This would be like trying to find barbell, dumbbell, or treadmill as an exercise. Instead you find bench press, strength training, or running as exercises.

    If you are looking to log for calories, then either use strength training, circuit training, or a similar entry and use it appropriately.

    This is how I do it. Since when I use kettlebells, it's circuit training anyway, I just log it as that.
