Hello everyone
I'm sure this question must have been asked already but here's my question to Fitbit (or other activity trackers) users: I'd like to know if anyone keeps their FitBit/tracker on them during Zumba and whether or not you enter your Zumba class into MyFitnessPal.
I have been using MyFitnessPal to track my calorie intake and various activies, such as yoga, so I enter my Zumba activity on there too. I also keep my FitBit on me during class, so I'm wondering if I make Zumba count twice ...
Thanks for your help

    If you manually log Zumba with the time of day you do it, that overrides whatever the Fitbit detected during that span, I believe. So you wouldn't be double counting.

    I'd probably just use the Fitbit to estimate it. I bet it's more conservative and it removes the step of manually logging.
