Fitness Trackers and MyFitnessPal

keruffus

If I connect my Fitbit to MyFitnessPal, and I record a cardio exercise on MyFitnessPal, are my steps being recorded twice?

1st for the actual cardio exercise recorded in MyFitnessPal
2nd for the Fitbit step adjustment

No.

Your adjustment is:

Fitbit Burn - MFP estimated burn (exercise + activity level) = adjustment

Examples:

No exercise logged-


Positive with exercise-


Negative with exercise-
