    I'm wondering the same thing.
    I'm guess the best way is to get a HRM.

    I wear a heart rate monitor (chest strap) for all my workouts. I put my personal trainer workouts, which include weights, in as Cardio/Weight lifting/Strength training for the duration (60 min) and then I put in the number of calories that my heart rate monitor tells me I burned.

    I really like the HRM because it tells me how hard I am working and gives me an accurate idea of how many calories I have burned.

    BTW, I have a Polar model, which is also compatible with most of the gym cardio equipment, which means that the machine's display will also show my heart rate.

    Good Luck.

    When I worked with a trainer I put "circuit training". It was easier than trying to list out every exercise she had me do individually.

    I am a trainer. I have my clients log under circuit training 30 mins.
