Hello,
I'm trying to understand how you calculate the activityCalories, caloriesOut and caloriesBMR, but i didn't succeed yet. I read the page, but doesn't seem to answer it. What i want to know:
1) How do i know how many calories were wasted from my steps?
i was analysing my data and i have:
"activities": [], "summary": { "activeScore": -1, "activityCalories": 74, "caloriesBMR": 1058, "caloriesOut": 1122, ... "marginalCalories": 22 }
if you sum activeCalories + caloriesBMR = 1132 (not 1122 like caloriesOut). So how can i discover how many calories i wasted with the steps (that are not from activities)?
Thank you

The BMR calories are calculated from your weight.
The calories out is the whole calories burned.
So the calories for the steps= CaloriesOut-BMRcalories.
And thats the activity calories.
