Why does this app not give "calories burned" with weight training?

    Search for it under cardio, you'll find a calorie burnt estimate there. Don't take any calorie reading on here as gospel though, they can be way off. And it's very difficult to estimate for lifting weights because it all depends on how heavy you lift, how long you rest between sets, all sorts of variables.
