So i do weight training because my knee is hurting (can’t do cardio). I do like abdominals and dumbbells and i recorded it on the app and it doesn’t show how many calories i burned. How do i add calories??

    Use the strength training entry under Cardiovascular exercise.

    Only the cardio section of the diary has calorie functionality.
    Log the duration of your strength training there, not individual exercises.
