    It's frustrating. I just try to find the closest thing to use as an estimate.

    Like say "calisthenics" for my home workout. You can put light or intense effort.

    I log either strength training or calisthenics-light effort under the cardio entries.

    I use "Strength training (weight lifting, weight training)."

    Like others have said, this needs to go in the cardio section. Strength training is just for notes; does not give you exercise calories.
