Okay I am very new to MFP so hope this isn't a really dumb question, but:

I do the workout on Wii Active 2/0 and I am wondering how to enter it into the website so that I can enter my calories burnt. There are a few Wii things to choose from already, but none for the Active 2.0. Any idea how to either generate the information or is there a place to petition to have them added??

Thanks!!

    I just added it to my exercises so I could use it and then entered the cal. burnt from either the program or from an HRM. Not sure how to add it to the full database but you could post this in the "suggestions" message topic, that goes to the moderators and programers

    You can manually add it in if you have a heart rate monitor and know what you burned or I'd put it in as Aerobics or Circuit Training.

    When you hit "Add Exercise" and it bring you to the Search option, type in something to search for. For example, Wii Active 2. After it says that it can't find it, there is a link at the bottom of the boxes that says "Can't find what you're looking for? Add an exercise to the database" Click on that link and you can add the exercise yourself to the database.

    hope this helps!

    Okay, so I can add stuff manually? I'll look into that one.

    Thanks for the help everyone!! God Bless you all in your efforts.

    I add mine manually because the calories burn change with each workout I do, depending how motivated I am that day. I use a Polar HRM along with the Wii HRM and they always differ.

    I enter mine as circuit training and adjust the calories to what the HRM says :smile:
