# Log and create new exercises quickly

With Carb Manager’s Quick Entry feature, you can quickly log new exercises that aren’t listed in [our database](/docs/en/find-exercises) or that aren’t custom exercises that you previously created.

**Tip:** Exercises created with the Quick Entry feature are not saved for future logging. If you plan to complete the exercise more than once, consider [creating a custom exercise](/docs/en/create-custom-exercises) instead.**Tip:** To log common exercises that are in the Carb Manager database or to log custom exercises that you already created, see [Log exercises](/docs/en/log-exercises).
