TDEE
Hello everyone! I recently calculated my TDEE and I'm still a little confused on how the whole thing works. My TDEE was 2198. So that's what I put into MFP for my daily calories. Someone has recently asked me if I remembered to subtract 20% from that number. I had no idea what they were talking about. If I subtract 20%…

I love playing for fun but for days (like today) when I'm not feeling well enough to make it to the gym, it's a great way to sweat and move your entire body. In the main menu you can select "Just Sweat Mode", I must say, I love it. They keep…

What do you think is a good amount of time to just straight walk on a treadmill. What would you set as your incline and speed? Remember I can't run so not too fast :-)…
