Entering weight training

has anybody found a good way to enter weight lifting into the strength section for exercise? I split my days by back/legs/bi's&shoulders/tri's&chest. Any advice would be great!

You can create your own exercises. Either do it as a group: 'tris day', 'shoulder boulders', etc or as individual exercises logging each lift. Fwiw, the strength section is designed to help you track your lifting, not calculate calorie burns. For that purpose, it kinda blows. Getting a dedicated app like Jefit is a much better option.0

Yep, that's what I do. Probably underestimating the calorie burn by a small amount, but that's not a huge deal.
