Why "resting calories" is different from "basal calories"?
We all know that in Apple Watch, total calories = active calories + resting calories.
Active calories are...simply the ones from movement, sport, activity, etc...
Resting calories are the ones you need to keep alive, even when you do nothing physical.
At the end of the day, I see that every day resting calories = (more or less) about 300 Kcal.
BUT from my understanding the resing calories should be the Basal Calories, which are also resting calories.
(https://www.calculator.net/bmr-calculator.html)
From Omron, my basal calories are around 1,500 Kcal per day.
So, why Omron tells me that my basal calories are 1,500Kcal, but Apple Watch adds only 300 Kcal to the total?.
(by the way, this Basal calories should be added...and the 1,500 Kcal is a good value...otherwise the recommended daily calories intake of 1,500 to 2,000 Kcal should have no meaning...)
Thanks!
