Hi there
my workouts are circuit training at a local gym called F 45. I also have a horse that I ride every single day. I also on Monday nights have joined a sports team called kickball. But most of the time I walk my dogs and just work out.

Additional calories used when carrying a load
OK, so here's a weird one. I can go to sailrabbit and play around with getting a different TDEE based on how much I weigh and what my activity level is. That's maybe a very rough answer to my question, but definitely very rough. Clearly it takes more energy to carry yourself around the more you weigh. Sailrabbit can show…

Best way to log Active Energy and Exercise totals
I am a Premium subscriber and MFP is recommending a kilojoule intake of 10,000KJ per day, which sounds about right for my height and goals. Apple Health tallies my Active Energy but only part of that figure (the KJs I specifically log as exercise) is synced with MFP. In other words, my Active Energy might be 4000KJ but the…

Jessica Smith's 6 Week Total Body Transformation

Hmm, stair stepper question
So I did my first time on the stair stepper at the gym today. Pretty sure it was developed by satan lol, but I did it, and I’ll do it again. However, I’m wondering how to track it. I put it under “cardio, climbing stairs”. It gave me 112 calories. But the machine said 60 calories. How do I know which is more accurate? I…

Fitness trackers/watches, which ones integrate the best with MFP
I currently have a fitbit sense. It works pretty good, but drops true HR at times. Like when I’m on the stair mill. 10 minutes in, doing intervals, sweat pouring, working really hard and HR is 85. Then it will jump to 150 after a few minutes which is more realistic. Same with weights. I can be fully pumped, breathing hard…

Has anyone tried a FitOn course?
I use both beachbody on demand (BOD) and fiton. I like BOD because of the calendars to follow in each program. My subscription just renewed and they increased their annual price by $25. It is still worth the price, but with FitOn having introduced courses that also have a calendar, I’m wondering if the FitOn courses could…

random question
I have the Planet Fitness app that you track you workouts at the gym on, which is connected to my Health app on my IPhone 14. Does that information transfer itself into the MFP app, or will I need to enter it manually into MFP? Just wondered if anyone has figured this out yet since I'm probably going to hit PF later today.…

New Years resolutions working? I'm feeling a bit faster!
I'm getting just a little bit faster in all my activities this month. I do multi-sport (swim, ride, run). Late fall is my slow season, but I get motivated again in January.

Exercise adjustment
Can someone please explain the exercise calorie adjustment to me like I'm in grade school? The MFP explanation just isn't clear to me. I mean if I burn, say 400 calories working or, shouldn't that be deducted from my daily calorie intake? Instead it generally tends to balance out with my burned calories. Thanks
