Hi!

I'm new to MFP and have a question. Do you record calories burned while weight lifting? I just started CLX and I wear my HRM while doing the circuts (burning around 300 cal/session). I know when I enter in the exercise, it doesn't count the calories burned in the weight section. Should I be adding the calories burned under the cardio section? Any help would be geatly appreciated:smile:

TIA!
Michelle

    Yes. I do Chalean Extreme and I wear a HRM during it and log it in the cardio section after. I usually do a bit of cardio after that so I just put in total calories burned.

    yes - that question came up just a bit ago in fact. Track your exercises under strength, then under cardio list the amount of time and number of calories.
