    put it in cardio. no one really uses strength for that reason.

    Did you enter an exercise earlier in the day? If so, it will combine the exercises together to show a complete calorie burn for the day.

    Edit: Nevermind, I haven't started strength training so I didn't realize it didn't show those calories burned. ;)

    I hate that Strength doesn't show calories burned, you know your burning. Household chores aren't listed either, vacuming must burn something. Just keep doing something.....

    I think there is "Strength Training" under cardio...or maybe there is only that category in mine because I entered it.


    You'll have to come up with your own calorie-burn (I think). :ohwell:

    there's a category for strength training in the cardio section-- enter it there to get the burned calories. the "strength training" journal is more for purposes of tracking how much weight you're lifting and your progress in strength, not to guage calories.
