    I guess the steps is irrelevant Unless I get an actual tracker. The question more was aimed if I am sendentary working out vigorously 6 times a week.

    How do you know how many steps you're really taking if you don't carry your step tracker ... aka, phone ... for large chunks of your movement around the house?

    HIIT six days a week or interval training six days a week? There is a significant difference.
    MFP does not count deliberate exercise in its activity level.

    You aren't sedentary if you are working out 6 days a week BUT for the purpose of MFP, which tracks exercise separately you ARE sedentary outside of your workouts. Set MFP to sedentary.
