    I wore a heart rate monitor for my calorie burn and entered the totals under Cardio even if it wasn't. I had to create my own Workout to do this and I used Burn Circuit 1 (or 2 or 3) and the additional workouts I listed the same.

    However, for p90x I am doing the entire workout instead of listing say "Abs" and then "X Workout." I just use Abs + Workout (naming them).

    CHX is strength training, but you would have to enter each activity separately and that would take forever!

    I don't think that is even possible. You burn a lot less calories doing strength training then cardio. The most I have ever burned doing Burn circuit was 400 calories using a strap and watch HRM.

    The watch HRM's are not that accurate. Chest strap ones are the best.
