    I have a heart rate monitor.It's a garmin 305 and it gives me a lot of info.calories burned,heart rate,distance,cadence...etc..
    If you don't have one MFP calculates a lot of exercises .If you put in what you've done under the exercise tab it might have your workout!

    *I revised Thursday’s total down after repeating an identical workout on Saturday, I think Thursday’s numbers were off. Also skeptical about Friday’s numbers, but I don’t have an HRM and have to use MFP’s guess.
