Physical therapy exercises

I just started some PT for knee problems. Today I worked hard for 45 minutes and surely used up some calories, but I can't figure out how to log those exercises in my exercise log. Is there any way of doing that? I found one exercise, abdominal leg lift, but couldn't find a way to enter anything.

Thanks for your help!

    I keep PT separate from other exercise and don’t log it. Its point is not calorie burn, it’s healing. For me it is important to keep those two categories completely separated, or I might start to work at it in a damaging way.

    Thanks for this. I donʻt have to worry about that at this point because it hurts! Good hurt, not bad. I guess I'll just know I'm burning a few, at least.
