Entering Strength Training in Exercise Diary

Is there a simple way to track gym workouts in MFP? Cardio is tracked easily as it is one activity. I want to track my weight training for calorie counting, etc. but it seems you need to enter every exercise separately with weight, reps, etc. Very time consuming especially since I like to vary the exercises on different days. I do that offline to track my progress but it is time consuming to duplicate on MFP. Anyone know of shortcuts.

    Not easily; I've yet to find a weight training app that integrates at all with MFP.

    I use the "strength training" entry under cardio to log my time. I don't eat those calories back, so the correct (or incorrect) calorie count isn't a concern for me. I keep my actual log of strength training (exercises, reps, weight) in a notebook.

    A good weight/exercise tracking site is Fitocracy.... but in no way does it link up with MFP. And Fito has an amazing supportive community.
    Under Armor's Record (https://record.underarmour.com/) links with MFP, but just records the time you spend, and gives you a cals burned value based on that.
