Should I see calories calculate with strength training? Currently I am only seeing it calculate with cardiovascular. I'm wondering if I need to change a setting.

Thanks for any help.

    You have to track them under cardio.

    I track them under cardio. I have no clue how accurate it is.

    I think of 30 mins of strength as appx 100cals.
    30 mins of cardio is appx 300 cals.

    Ive been told over and over again that cals burned for strength isnt important bur you should always eat over maint cals on any training day.
    More on cardio days.

    Shoot for 20% more cals on cardio days and only about 100 cals over maint on Lifting days.
    If you are cutting then dont go over at all.
