Please don't blast me; maybe I missed it - but why doesn't MFP recognize HIIT under cardiovascular exercise? Thanks.

    I never noticed this, but the reasoning is that HIIT is not only cardiovascular (to some people). You can be weight/resistance/strength training and utilizing HIIT. It's primary benefits are cardiovascular; but the focus is not cardiovascular exercise for most people when they're lifting. That's the only reasoning behind it that I can see.
