I am trying to track the days I do yoga, but I am not interested in listings out each individual pose or exercise. The only way I find to log a workouts it takes me to the workout routines where either I have to pick one or build my own. Is there a way to simply log "I did 25 mins of Yoga" and call it a day?

    If you add exercise, under Cardiovascular, search for yoga and there are multiple choices.

    I use the generic yoga entry in the database. You will burn some calories but it is hard to be exact because yoga can vary so much, from mostly breathing exercises to flow routines. If you don't want to count the calories, just change the number burned to 1.

    Thank you, I found it! It didn't occur to me to look under cardiovascular.

    Yes, absolutely! Most fitness tracking apps have a generic workout logging feature where you can simply input the duration and type of exercise. In MyFitnessPal (MFP), you can go to the 'Exercise' tab, select 'Add Exercise', and then choose 'Yoga' from the list. Just input 25 minutes, and you're done. No need to break down individual poses or follow a specific routine. It's perfect for people who just want to track their general activity without getting into the nitty-gritty details. Hope this helps!
