Weight training calorie burn on Fitpal tracker?

I'm just starting my "food journal" on Myfitnesspal, and the food part is going well. I can't seem to get much out of the exercise part. Usually I weight train with super sets with little to no rest between sets or exercises, so its more like circuit training. I can't figure out how to put that in the exercise part of the journal, it doesn't say how much calories I'm burning in the weight training section, only cardio.

I have a Fitbit Force on order, and it will help judge how much I'm burning, but i thought i might be putting it into the exercise tracker wrong, or didn't have a box checked or something?

Anyone have any hints?

    You can enter weight training in the Cardio section if you want a calorie burn for it. The Force isn't going to give you accurate calories for lifting because it's basis is step related. Fitbits are really very fancy pedometers.
