    Look up "strength training" in the cardio section if you want a guestimate of calories burned.

    Depends on what you did. If you ran on a treadmill for half an hour, you'd put your speed and time. Same for strength training, elliptical, biking, etc.

    HRM is a heart Rate Monitor.

    I get my strength calories from a website that monitors my TotalGym workouts and plans my training. Otherwise you can use the MFP strength and enter in the time you trained and it gives an estimate.

    How do I exercise when I can't do any weight-bearing exercise? I put down "0" workouts and it raised my calorie allowance

    i believe it lets you make your own exercise. but im not sure.

    what i would do is pick an exercise closest to what you do.
