      I was about to ask the same thing. I've been putting it under strength training, but it doesn't count as calories burned or towards my workout time goal.

      same here, but I understand why that cant guesstimate, to many variables.

      I just tell myself that I do crossfit to be in great shape, and thats the benefit.

      I do the same with my Jillian Michaels' No More Trouble Zones dvd. It's 50 minutes but I log it as 30 minutes general circuit training. The calories it gave me when I logged it as 50 minutes seemed too high so I figure its better to be safe than sorry. I don't want to overeat thinking that I burned more calories than I really did.

      I log it as calisthenics (vigorous).
