I always thought that mfp calculations were just really broad an general but now I'm not sure.
Yesterday did a spin class with my friend
We both just entered 30 minutes of spinning but it came up I'd burnt 19 more calories than her.
Does mfp take your weight and height into account when calculating? ( I am bigger than my friend)

    Yes it does of course, but its not completely accurate because it doesnt know your effort and other variables.

    Yes. MFP accounts for weight.

    Not about 19 calories,
    That was just an example that there was a variation

    I can't believe I didn't know mfp took that into account.


    That is fantastic!!!
