so finally started the plan that my fitness trainer recommended I did 15 repetitions of chest press, seated shoulder press, external rotation, seated row, seated leg press, chair squat. side lateral raise, arm curls and arm extension I would say it lasted about 25 minutes total when I entered in MFP I was asked for weight.... but I'm using the band.... so left it at 0 is that right or am I to guess the weight resistance? also when you do cardio you get calories burned with strength you don't?

  • Different bands are built with different resistances. If you own the band, check the box. If it's a gym band (Don't use a gym band, get your own) ask your trainer.

    Guestimate
  • when I use my bands I leave the "weight" at zero.
    When I do strength training I list all of my strength training exercises under the strength section, but then I go up to the cardio section and list it as strength training to get my calorie burn
