Question about extra calories and weight training

I don't know if anyone else has this problem, but why is it when I track any of my strength training on this site it does not give you additional calories? Don't you burn more when doing this?

    From what I have seen you have to enter the strength training under cardio for it to register the estimated calories burned. I also enter what I did under the strength training just so I could log my weights and reps.

    I think it's harder to get a proper estimate with strength training. I just log it so I can keep track of the weights/reps involved and only count the extra calories burned with cardio.
