I have been adding both my cardio and strength training to my exercise log but cannot find where to include the calories burned for strength training...does anyone know?

    I log in my strength training as a circuit workout in the cardio section and put the time it took me to do the workout which triggers the calories to count. Then on the same day I log the exercises specifically in the strength training below.

    You have to post the strength training minutes under the cardio portion of exercise to include the calories burned.

    I wear my heart rate monitor no matter what exercises I am doing. That way I always know exactly what I burn doing any exercises.

    Add your own exercise under Cardio Training and enter the calories burned. I think the area under Strength Training is for anyone keeping track of reps and weight used.
