Struggling with logging exercises...

So I'm about to do 30 mins of jump rope, 15 mins of jumping jacks and the 15 mins of running but I have no idea how to log it. When I try to log 3 different exercises, only one shows up in the feed. Is there a way to combine them all into 1 workout? :frown:

    If you check the news feed carefully, it says "burned X calories doing X minutes of cardio exercises, including X" when you log more than one cardio exercise.

    Don't worry, it all gets logged. All 3 will appear in your exercise diary, it just only mentions one in the news feed.

    The feed will combine them by saying x calories burned doing cardio exercise, including y activity. The x will be the total you burned doing all the activities but it will only list 1 of the activities you did. In your diary it will still show all of them.

    if you look at your "exercise" page they are all there. Your newsfeed will show the full amount of time you exercised, but will only state one, i think whatever burns the most calories. (note how it will say "including..."
    I would assume this is so that we don't get a half dozen different status updates from one person's exercise session, or multiple sessions throughout the day.
