How to log Strength Exercises like Weight Training?

I can't seem to find the machine exercises I'm starting and the few I did put in showed nothing as far as calories burned. Can anyone help on this topic?

Though as long as I'm exercising (and still losing weight), even if it doesn't "log" it I guess that's ok!

Thanks ~

    I normally log mine as circuit training.

    Light intensity: log as "weight training" under cardio.

    Moderate intensity: log as "circuit training".

    Since I don't do machines or weights I log my strength training as bodyweight training under cardio.

    Ah ha! I thought 'Strength Training' would be with weights, but will put it in Cardio. Thanks!
