I have the polar loop fitness band that tracks steps. So it is syncing with MFP but not adding exercise back. Does anyone know if a certain # of steps need to be reached ??

Thank you!!

    i think you need go into settings to add in negative calories... if I manually added exercise on top of 20,000 steps or so my calories for those steps would disappear. changing the setting fixed that.

    I did enable negative calories and it's still showing 0

    Do you sync in the polar app first? I sync there and then it auto syncs to mfp.

    It will only show exercise you pair it with a heart rate sensor. H6 or H7 H7 has gymlink to so you can see your heart rate on most cardio equipment, it will also control level/incline when using cardio/heart rate program
