Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate are calorie burn calculations?
Calorie burn calculations provide estimates based on MET values and body weight. Individual factors like fitness level, muscle mass, and metabolism can affect actual calorie burn. Use these as guidelines and adjust based on your experience.
Should I eat back the calories I burn during exercise?
It depends on your goals. If you're trying to lose weight, you may not need to eat back all calories burned. If you're maintaining weight or trying to gain muscle, eating back some calories can help with recovery and performance.
What's the best way to track calories burned?
Use a combination of heart rate monitors, fitness trackers, and manual tracking. Heart rate-based calculations are generally more accurate than step-based estimates. Keep a workout log to track your progress over time.
