When I go into the Fitbit app to change around the Exercise Shortcuts on my Charge 2, I only have like 10 things to choose from. However, if I go to fitbit.com or in the app to manually add a workout, there a tons more already setup. Is there some way to add others from that list into the app and onto my Charge 2?
Specifically, I do Cardio Kickboxing workouts a couple times per week. From the Exercise Shortcuts area of the app itself, I can choose Kickboxing but not Cardio Kickboxing. From within the area to manually log an entry, I can choose Cardio Kickboxing.
How can I get Cardio Kickboxing into the Exercise Shortcuts area?
Thanks.

When the exercise is not listed Use the Workout mode. Then when it syncs you can rename it to Cardio Kickboxing

I know I can manually change it but I shouldn't have to do that. Fitbit obviously has a catalog of hundreds of workouts types, and they all use different calculations to determine calories burned. I should be able to search that whole catalog when creating my Exercise Shortcuts instead of only the 10 that they give me.
I guess I can make a feature request but those don't seem to actually have any effect.

Have you had any luck with this issue? I would love to have Cardio Kickboxing on my shortcut list too.
Thanks,

There is a "Kickboxing" option that you can make one of your exercise shortcuts.

Hi Johnny,
Thanks for the reply, I actually have that has a short cut on my watch. I wanted to know if there was a way to add 'Cardio Kickboxing'. It shows that activity of Fitbit's website when you manually log an exercise, I was hoping I could add that since it reflects more the exercise I do.
Thanks,
Brett

@graywolf007 Nope, sorry. Best you could do is change the the name in the workout log after the fact.

Any luck getting this boxing or kickboxing feature to accurately track? I have the Charge 3 and it only tracks about half of my boxing workouts. Maybe I'm hitting the heavy bags too hard...
