I go to Orange Theory for my workouts.
They calculate and track number of calories burned. I want to add that to my daily tracker here. How can I do it?

    I'm not sure if you need the premium version or not. But I just clicked on the "Exercise" tab on the home page. And it has a search box or an arrow to select a workout. Orangetheory was listed.

    I personally have not started entering my exercise yet. So I don't know much about it. If you see the exercise tab, click on it. Then click the down arrow to select your workout.

    I wish I could be more helpful. Good luck!

    Surfergirl is right: In the Cardiovascular part of the MFP exercise database, there's an "Orangetheory" option you can use. (Yes, the name is all run together like that.) You can overtype the exercise calories it suggests with whatever number you think is correct. This should work in free MFP. (I believe adding your own custom exercise is also available in free MFP.)

    MFA not calculating my steps to calories. I've looked at all the settings.

    I was recently on the road traveling. I couldn't post my workouts everyday. There was no more than a day before I could post. In other words, I skipped day, before, I could post my workouts. I had a streak well over 2600 days. I will say the folks who run the site cancelled my streak, because I didn't post every day, even though I posted when I could.

    Not sure why you posted this on a thread about à different topic, but to reply to your comment: a streak is a number of consecutive days. So if you didn't login/log on consecutive days, it's normal you lost your streak.
    MFP has a login streak and a diary/food streak: for the diary/food streak, I think you can add to days without info and correct the streak that way.
