Tracking Exercise on App
A few weeks ago logging exercises was easy. There was a plus icon at bottom of screen, I would log a 50 minute pilates at 120 calories class and the app would subtract those calories from my daily total. Once I updated the app, a few weeks ago, it doesnt work. Even when I add an exercise the app does not subtract those…

New Garmin Watch / Primarily for Cycling.
Looking at getting a new Garmin Forerunner 745. I primarily cycle, but toy with running from time to time. Not really a swimmer, but I like the waterproof reliability of the 745. Anybody have any experience with this watch. How is the GPS? Can you upload routes onto the watch?

Connecting C25K to MFP
So I didn't think I was an idiot. Within the C25K app, I can't seem to find anywhere to create the connection. The settings menu is just very basic stuff. The app apparently doesn't have a web presence in the same way MapMyFitness does, so no dice there. On MyFitnessPal, the apps section of the site has a button for…
