    I have several Beach Body workouts and I think the only good way to log them is to wear a heart rate monitor. I purchased the Polar Ft4f for $65.00 and couldn't be happier. I use it for all sorts of activities.

    I log them using a HRM for the calorie burn :)

    i pick calisthenics (pushups, situps) from the dropdown pick list, vigorous. it'll pop up the calories burned.

    Under cardio as strength training using a hrm for calorie count. Usually do something beforehand like bike, walk or run to get my heart rate up, then lift.

    So how do you add the calories you burned during your workout (on your heart rate monitor) into the exercise log manually? X

    Change the calories manually to what it says on your heart rate monitor :-)

    I broke up the specific exercises as best I could here but mostly logged it as cardio or calisthenics (or a combination).

    Exacts I kept in worksheets I stored in Google Docs.
