Can anyone explain how the calorie adjustment on MFP works?

Is it purely for your steps or does it take into consideration all the other exercise logged in your Fitbit?

I have them linked but today I walked 12,000 steps, did a 30 minute hit session (recorded as 200 calories on fitbit) and 15 min cross trainer (100 calories) but the adjustment on MFP only showed I had 43 extra calories with all the exercise I had done.

Should I be manually adding any extra workouts that don’t involve steps?

    I also find that confusing. My fit bit counts all my walking workouts as steps. If I I do additional workouts I take off my fit bit and add the work out manually otherwise I would be double counting my work out as steps and a workout. It’s not ideal because I like to keep track of my heart rate while working out.
