Strength training on mfp versus Cardio training on mfp

I am recording my exercises in Myfitnesspal for both cardio and strength. The cardio is syncing with Fitbit, but the strength training is not.
How do I get the strength training to also sync with fitbit?

There are no calories associated with the strength training logging of your lifting stats - so there's nothing to sync over. Notice you didn't enter a start and duration time in those stats?
For that better estimate of calorie burn - log it as either Strength training or Circuit training in the database, depending if you do reps 5-15 and rests 2-4 min, or reps over 15 and rests less than 1 minute.0 -
It did not give me an option for start and duration time in the stats. Just #of sets,repetitions/set, and weight per set.0

I know. Hence the reason I said what I said.0

does "log it as either strength training or...in the database" mean fitbit?0

The previous person means log it as strength training under the cardio section, like where you log other exercises. Entering the number of sets/reps under the strength training section is just for your personal information and does not calculate calories.0
