    Make sure you spell strength correctly when searching, or just search for the word train.

    Look for strength rather than streinght or streangth .

    This is the full string "Strength training (weight lifting, weight training)"

    Spell any of those words correctly and you will find it.

    Just now. You're doing something wrong.

    You have to search under Cardio. Only use the single word "train." If you are on the mobile app and it still does not show up under Add Cardio; then go to the web version and search for it under Cardio. It will be there. Add that to your Exercise Diary. When the web version syncs with your mobile app, it should then show up in your recent Exercise list on the mobile app.

    I put strength training under circuit trading and yes it is found under cardio. They don't include it elsewhere because it's impossible to enter a standard for this because everybody's workout and burn are so different.

    Download the Bodyspace app. It has weight lifting built in. Doesn't give you the calorie burn, but can help you keep track of your workouts.

    You can add reps/weights etc under "Track additional measurements" here on MFP on the Check in page. You just add it and then it's always one of your items tracked.
