So I was just wondering why doesn't MFP count the calories you burn doing strength training I know you don't burn much but wouldn't you at least burn enough for them to count just wondering why it doesn't count or show up on the main page.

hahahhaah, that happened to me too.
-Log under Cardiovascular to add the calories burned, still called strength training
- logging under Strength training is to track your progression :-)0 -
Part of it is that ST really actually burns a minimal amount of calories. The benefit comes during the recovery process.0
