Strength work doesn't really burn a lot of calories directly. It has other benefits for your body.

So really you should ask yourself - is this strength work or is it calorie burning? It's really not both. That's why Spark didn't used to offer any burn at all for strength - now there's a tiny token amount.

I did, but it doesn't have turbo sculpt for strength, only turbo jam for cardio kick boxing.

They're in the tracker. Just search "turbo jam".
