Hi! I noticed that when I entered my strength training it didn't provide me with calories burned on my diary.

It wont.
Theres an option under cardio called 'strength training' but the burn MFP gives you wont be accurate0 -
If you want to log calories burned during strength training you'll need a heart rate monitor that does estimation and syncs with MFP. There are a few on the market and more on the way, but the estimates tend to be optimistic anyways.0

Some of the new ones employ more sensors to try to better model what goes on during weight training (MS Band reads heart rate, skin temperature, motion, acceleration, perspiration and other data points), but it's still early days.0
