Does anyone know why the Exercise for strength training doesn't count anything as burning calories? Of course when your lifting, sweating and out of breathe you are burning calories but it doesn't show up as it burned any when you log it? Any ideas?

    Look in cardio for "Strength training (weight lifting, weight training)" and enter the amount of time spent lifting.

    That's how I do it also. I don't need MFP to track my reps/sets so I log it under cardio.
