    You still have to put them under cardio. Silly but it wont show otherwise. x

    MFP doesn't calculate calories burned for weight training if you log it under the strength training section. However, if you search for "strength training" or "circuit training" (depending on how you weight train), it will let you put in how long you did it and display an estimated calorie burn.
