strength training calories
When I add a cardio exercise I get additional calories added onto my daily calorie allotment...but none when I add some weight exercises...it doesn't seem to affect the total. I couldn't find anything in the database for the P90x workout calorie used (although I can't do any of them right now since I fractured my wrist!)…
