Trying to add splitting firewood. From what I can find online this is 400-500 calories an hour, but cants figure out how to input that.

    from your diary in the app or your exercise diary on the website, select add exercise (cardio), search for cutting firewood, and on the bottom of page where it tells you it couldn't find it, it will give the option to add or create an exercise.

    the key is to start from your diary, not the exercise database.

    FYI, I had to create a custom exercise and add it by searching for it a few times before it started showing up in my list.
