HI i was just wondering what you guys do for the "exercise" portion of the daily log? how do you log each exercise or do you just log one exercise to a certain amount of calories burned? and what amount of calories burned do you put each day?

    I just enter in my own work outs and named them after each insanity workout. then I googled average calories lost for someone my weight and height.

    I need to rethink the calories burned, and get a HRM because i think my first calculations were way over.

    I use my HRM and create a new exercise.
  • I was going to ask the same thing!! :) Great question. Good luck.
  • Someone told me to just put it under circuit training. Thats what i do. I don't have a HRM.
