KRISTY-
It's not very important for you to be calculating calories burned--it's more important to simply meet the general fitness recommendations (Number of workouts per week and Total minutes of those workouts).

If it is like Curves then it is mainly strength training, so if you'd like to add it to your tracker so that you know that you did it, add a "User Entered Exercise" under Strength Training, name it "Swann workout" or similar and simply track that you did the entire workout.

Hope that helps,

Coach Nicole

I go to this gym called Swann at least once a week. It's very much like Curves. I was wondering how I could use the Fitness Tracker to calculate the calories I've lost during my workout considering it's many different exercises, both cardio and strength training.
Thank for any help.
