Could you guys include anaerobic exercise as an option to track and count minutes for?

@beckyetorres -- I don't know if fitbit will add more exercise tracking options to the phone app, but there is a workaround.  Just choose one of available exercises you can track (run, walk, hike) when you start your weights workout and stop it when you are done.  Don't worry about calories etc., because you are only doing this to mark the start time and duration.  After you have finished go back and LOG weights starting at the same time and for the same duration as the "run" you tracked (the screen where you track exercises has a toggle at the top that you can change to "log").  

 

After that is done delete the "run."
