How is everyone tracking the squats for exercise? or are you tracking them?

    I am interested in how folks are tracking them also.

    I use Calisthenics and estimate how many calories I think I burned. I always underestimate (I hope). :)

    Under 'Strength Training' in the 'Track Exercise' section of my profile.

    There is already an exercise "squats"
    I just searched for 'squats' and put in the number of squats I did.

    I'm not going to include it in my calorie burn for the day.
    a few minutes of squatting isn't going to earn me a sandwich or anything :)

    ^ this. The only time I count them is if I go right into another rep type exercise and so on. Then I would count it under circuit training or something like that.
