Is there a way to customize a exercise plan on here?

I want to add my exercise on here but they don't always have the exercise I am doing in there data base is there a way to customize my own and still see how many calories I am burning?

    Hi! I have found that the best way to get an accurate number of calories burned is to wear a heart rate monitor. The ones with a chest strap are probably the most accurate. They can be ordered online fairly cheap.

    You can add your own workouts in the exercise section - if you search and your activity is not found there is a link to add it to the database at the bottom of that page. - you will have to compile your own calorie burn information.
