How to log resistance band workouts?

AH2013

I recently bought resistance bands and have no idea how to log the workouts that I do. Wondered what others doing the same thing logged it as.

Also, when doing strength/resistance training, do you not burn calories, as it doesn't seem to log it as having any calories burnt. Would be interested to hear what you all do to log this workout. It takes me about half an hour and I build up a sweat, just don't want to miss out on any calorie logging!!! :laugh:

You burn calories all day long, whatever movements you do.

I just think that the calories that you burn while doing strength training are too difficult to count calories for, or something...

There's something in cardio, strength training... what did you do with your band?? I did warriorxfit.com last night and logged it as calisthenics (push ups, sit ups etc)

Sorry that wasn't clear - go into Cardio and log it as strength (or whatever) in there

Nikki...what have you got me into?? Tried warriorxfit today, holy crap, I ache. I thought when I started, god this looks really easy, but it so isn't. Feel good now that I've done it. Took me ages to work out how to work the thing and log my reps etc. Got there though. Thanks for the tips ladies x
