I've been wondering the same thing...0

I find some of the strengh training under cardio. Like weight lifting, ect.0

I log in my strength training as a circuit workout in the cardio section and put the time it took me to do the workout which triggers the calories to count. Then on the same day I log the exercises specifically in the strength training below.0

You have to post the strength training minutes under the cardio portion of exercise to include the calories burned.0
-
I found it listed under the cardio category, just scroll down to strenghth training0
-
I wear my heart rate monitor no matter what exercises I am doing. That way I always know exactly what I burn doing any exercises.0
-
Add your own exercise under Cardio Training and enter the calories burned. I think the area under Strength Training is for anyone keeping track of reps and weight used.0

Thank you all for your responses! I will begin adding them now:-)0
