A warm welcome to the Community @Chellelynn622. I'll be happy to assist you. Sorry for the delayed reply. 

 

Your Fitbit device recognizes and awards active minutes when the activity you're doing is more strenuous than regular walking, which includes everything from a brisk walk to a cardio workout or run. Fitbit devices calculate active minutes using metabolic equivalents (METs). METs help measure the energy expenditure of various activities. Because they do so in a comparable way among persons of different weights, METs are widely used as indicators for exercise intensity. For example, a MET of 1 indicates a body at rest. Fitbit devices estimate your MET value in any given minute by calculating the intensity of your activity. 

 

Your calories burned will be tracked based in your personal information and BMR. You can learn more about it by checking this article: How does Fitbit estimate how many calories I've burned?

 

Please let me know how if you're not seeing any of this data in your Blaze or if you're seeing them in your tracker but not in your online Dashboard.

 

Keep me posted.
