I bike everyday, 6 miles or more, and I walk heaps and am always cleaning. I do yoga and a little pilates. Whats my activity level?

    Set it at sedentary and log the exercise you actually do. That will give you a better estimate for every day, since you activities vary by day.

    The cleaning is hard, but that varies a lot. You can use a pedometer or fitbit to log it as walking manually or automatically.

    I never count cleaning or walking to get things done. I do count a brisk walk that I intentionally do as exercise.
    I have mine set to lightly active to account for extra life tasks and my small 19 hour a week part time job. I count all exercise that I do for the purpose of exercise. Yoga, biking, brisk walks, etc. Some weeks I am really active with bike and hike and weight lifting. ( a much more activity setting) and some weeks I hardly do anything more than housework and my part time job.
