Anyone doing The Firm workout and having a hard time with calories burned and steps? Steps aren't being counted while holding weights and not swinging arms.

@SunsetRunner You can find the instructions to manually log activities in this article. This is recommended any time you engage in activity which does not primarily involve stepping.

Weights are not a Step based activity. I log it seperate. You do not get steps for weights

I love The Firm workouts ... my favorite is the Cardio Dance Party ... I get over 4,000 steps for that one.  But I haven't watch each move ... I'm sure there are some not being counted, but that doesn't mean the move doesn't count 🙂

Thank you ladies, glad you are enjoying the firm too. My favorite DVD uses the 14 inch step with weights. The Firm Cardio Sculpt. I guess I think I should be getting more steps counted while doing the step box routine.
Thanks for the help
