Workout vs Weights tracking

Hi,

Is there any functional difference between how the "weights" exercise type and the "workout" exercise type is tracked or is it just what information is displayed in the app?

 

Seems like the tracker just tracks heart rate and calories burned as a result so it's just about how the information is displayed rather than tracking it differently.

 

I can see where a bike, hike or walk would be tracked differently due to the location component though.

@RobSaxe I believe weights and workout are the same and are just a way to label your activity.  I use both of those along with "bootcamp" a lot and have seen no difference in the data collected for them. As you identified, there are some (walking, bike, etc.) that incorporate the GPS component, but that is the only difference I have seen between any of the exercise categories.
