I am on day two. I understand the whole linking, foods only on MFP etc. I like the whole FB idea because on Rest Days I walk. I like to see the steps but because I am just walking I do not log it as a workout.
My routine is an average of 4-7 1 hour a piece Zumba Classes a week. Some are toning, some are more cardio intense. It is my passion. I also do Bodylastics at home.
I began using Scoobysworkshop a couple of weeks ago. I figured out my stats:
20% reduction
workout days-
BMR - 1590
TDEE - 2464
Daily - 1971
Non workout days
BMR - 1590
TDEE - 1908
Daily - 1526
On MFP I go by my Daily depending on my goals and needs. When I do my classes I put in the minutes/hours but only 1 calorie burned. This way it does not take off from my already reduced amount. If I drop below my BMR and it is a lot, I will eat back half. These two weeks have been fairly good even though a learning curve has been in order.
Adding FB, I love the dash board. The green dial etc. It seems pretty darn close, around 80 less of my daily. Easy enough. I can handle that. I also know that will change. IE: Disney for 10 days etc. It will note the walking I am sure and no classes lol.
Would I still continue to keep my daily in MFP since it has worked. Let the two talk and connect and log classes still at a 1?
How are you guys doing this that go by Scooby?
I wear a HRM for Zumba, will do 120 minutes tonight. I am so confused now how to add this?
