Calculate strength in fitness goals?

I've been on a little over a week and I just realized that the fitness page doesn't add time for strength training. I had put in my goals to exercise 60 minutes, 5 days a week. 3 days a week I split it to 30 min cardio and 30 min strength. If it doesn't count the strength training as part of the workout then it looks like I didn't do my goal every day. Is there a way to separate it? The goals just say how much you plan to work out, it doesn't specify that is strictly cardio. (Not to mention that there are no calories you can earn back from strength training). Should I alter my exercise goal or how to I incorporate the strength into meeting my daily goals?
