Hi I was just wondering how you factor in your calories burned from stength training it only calculates cardio. Does anyone know ?

    This has been asked several time and I believe the most popular answers are to log your strength training under cardio to record the calories burned and to measure your strength training with a heart rate monitor while working out for a more accurate count.
