This is my third day here at mfp. I am hoping to get into shape for a Super Spartan Race (10 mile obstical course) in August. Need some motivation to stay on track and to hit my goal of getting under 200! Love the site. It really helps me keep track of my calorie intake. Trying to run 20 miles a week. Did have a question about workouts, When I posted my strength exercies, it did not list burned calories. Why does cardio exercise list burned calories and not strength?

    Hi! welcome to MFP, feel free to add me as a friend! And I'm not sure why strength training doesnt give you a calorie count :(

    Hello! And WOW Spartan race is hardcore!
    I dont really know they didnt count calories for strength train. They dont do it for P90x or Insanity either :(
