Weekly exercise per hours instead of days

I'd like to track my weekly exercises per hours instead of days since I might train few hours per day but only a few days of week. So while I have trained f.ex. 6 hours in a week Fitbit shows me only two days exercise in the dashboard. It gives me a feeling that I haven't exercised enough even though I have been working out. And on the other hand if I walk 15 minutes per day for four days Fitbit compliments me that I have reached my weekly goal - even though I have only exercised 1 hour in a week (versus that 6 hrs in two days).

 

So it would be great if we could choose whether we want to track days or hours in weekly exercise. Thanks!

I would love to have the option to set my exercise goal in minutes per week instead of just days per week. That would be so helpful!

This was suggested 3 years ago; I am a new Fitbit member but want to bring this up again. There should be an option to have Exercise as a "hours" or "number of workouts" goal instead of a "days" goal per week.
