is anyone using the mfp estimates for calories burned? i started manually adjusting mine to a little less than half what mfp estimates, so i don't go crazy on eating back exercise cals, but it will def. make it harder to meet my goal for calories burned.0 -
I walk half an hour a day to work and back but I'm guessing that's not included as intentional exercise as it's not by choice?
i don't make the rules, but i don't see why that wouldn't count. i just take "intentional exercise" to mean that you're making a conscious effort to move, and tracking your activity, however light or vigorous it may be. if you feel like your short walk to work isn't enough to be considered exercise (though it is), you could pick up the pace.0 -

It's not that it's not enough as I put it in my diary (and goal is set to sedentary) but seems like cheating to already have half an hour everyday that I have no choice about. But that's a good idea to try going faster instead, I'll try that on the way home tonight!

Are you ready to MOVE-IT??!!
April is a great time to re-evaluate your fitness and weight loss goals in order to get slim and trim for the summer!.:flowerforyou: This is the perfect time to re-commit or jump start your routine!
What are your fitness goals? Are you still getting in those workouts? Or are you just starting a workout program? Do you need a little more motivation? If so please join us.
We are a group who are committed to doing 180 to 360+ minutes of exercise (minimum 180) or/and burn 2500 to 3500+ (minimum 2500) each week. We count minutes for all types of intentional exercise: aerobics, walking, weight training, strength work, stretching or heavy gardening. You be the judge of whether it's exercise or not.
We're here to support, encourage, and set challenges for ourselves. It's all about intention. If we don't make the 180 to 360+ minutes one week, there's next week to go for it.
The weeks starts every Monday in the month and ends the following Sunday at midnight. Then we start all over again the following Monday for week 2, 3, and 4. (and some months week 5)
Newcomers are always welcome!
If at first you don't succeed, you keep trying...just keep coming back to report progress or non-progress...it doesn't matter...it keeps us accountable and that's how we commit to healthy lifestyles. It is a chance to meet new friends and encourage one another along the way.
You can use the form below OR make up your own. So who's in for Week #1,2,3, or 4 sometimes 5??
