Please could someone tell me why when I log in an aerobics workout for 25 mins, it claims I had only burned 22 calories?? Is anyone else facing this same issue? 🥴

@Chicago888 It's good that the community is growing! 

Let me help you with your low caloric burn calculation for your manually logged activity. This is odd. Check your personal information (age, weight, height) as this is used to calculate part of your caloric burn data. I also suggest you log out from the app, restart your phone and log back in.

Let me know how it goes.

Hello!

 

Thanks for your suggestions, but it didn't make much of a difference, especially if I chose the "aerobics" options. 🙄 I did log out/in of both my app and desktop accounts + I made sure my stats were correct too....

 

In the meantime, I just manually enter the stats - using the calculations off the WebMD Exercise Calculator.....
