Steps and Spinning

[brendamamooshka]

So I know there's a ton of forum posts about this.. I've done a TON of reading through the forums and I know this has been a big issue.

I just had a quick question which seemed to be the only answer I couldn't find.

I read that one of the "hacks" or work arounds for steps during spinning (which i do a lot of) is manually adding drive time to the log so that it coincides with the time spent spinning and that offsets the extra steps.. but I was just wondering if you need to manually set the calories to 0 as well? or do you need to manually add in the calories burned during spin to driving?

I'm basically wondering if the calories over-ride each other as well... it's looking like they do, but I'm getting a lot of weird totals when I try and test it out. 

I'm just wondering if anybody else can help me out on this?

Thanks!

Welcome to the forums @brendamamooshka! Adding a driving log will decrease the steps, calories burned, and other data for the time period specified.

To negate steps from your activity log, you can do the following:

1. Sign into your Dashboard and click the 'Log Activity' icon from the menu at the top of the screen.
2. Select the date in question.
3. In the activity menu, type in "Automobile or light truck (not a semi) driving" and enter the time the commuting began and for how and the duration of your ride.
4. Click "Log Activity."

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions
