Weights and Calories?

Kippy14 · December 2010

I don't know if I am doing something wrong, but when I log my weight lifting, it does not list how many calories I have burned. It also does not take that time into account when calculating my weekly exercise minutes. Are these options not possible or am I doing something wrong? Any thoughts? Thank you!

you have to add it under the cardio section

look up weight lifting/weight training!

i bought a heart monitor and lift with that so i can get a more accurate number. With weight lifting; I read that you burn more calories than running because after you stop the body if still burning up to an hour or so.

It's shown under "strength training" in the cardio section

Strength/weight training != cardiovascular exercise.
