What things do you do?

Fitbit
I have a Fitbit Inspire HR. What is the percentage one should subtract from the calorie burn the Fitbit says you burned for a more accurate number?

Or push the seat back ( so it's not in the way) and stand up holding the handles while walking/ stepping on it? Just curious. I am sure there's better equipment out there, but not all…
