Cycling activity from Strava estimating too many calories...

[nicehat]

I ride to work and back very often, as its only 4miles/6km I log it as one ride.

Whilst time spent cycling is only about 40mins, fitbit picks this up from Strava as a 9/10hr cycling activity, vastly over estimating calories burnt (3000+), since I log to/from work as one ride...

Fitbit really needs to take account of Strava's activity where speed is zero for prolonged periods, else its pretty useless to me!

Hi @nicehat

Have moved your post from the Fitbit.com Dashboard to the Third-Party Integrations section to increase the chance of getting a solution.

Wishing a wonderful day

Mmm, still no solution, fitbit is still saying I ride 10hours a day!

@nicehat Is that how it appears in Strava also? Because it could be just an issue of how you're recording the activity in Strava. I would recommend you record those separately rather than pausing it for the entire day (if that's what you're doing).

Do you use the pause feature, or auto pause? Also as above suggests the quick solution is to log as two rides. I do it every day with no problems.
