Is it ok to log workout the next day
I did a 1000 calorie workout today but without adding it, I am already under calorie goal. Since it is the weekend, which means less exercise and more eating, is it ok if I log today's burn in tomorrow or Sunday diary, so that I do not see reds. This is sort of banking extra calories for future use.
