I am thinking that maybe they have their terminology screwed up? Maybe my BRM on Garmin connect is really my TDEE?
Garmin BMR: 1862 - Activity is set on 0
MFP BMR: 1556
BMR calc: 1572
MFP Calories Burned From Normal Daily Activity: Sedimentary 1950
Anyone eles? Because no matter what I change in Garmin my Garmin BMR doesn't change. I just need to know if everything is sync'd correctly.

As you know BMR is what your body would use if you just laid in bed all day and did not move. Not many people do that, currently (expected to change in July) Garmin add an extra 20% to cover the basic activity of a day (moving around the house, cleaning teeth etc).0
