Apple Watch - Active VS Total specifically for workout.
Hi,
I have googled and been unable to find a clear answer for this.
What is the accurate count of what I burned during a workout— the active or total calories?
I have seen other threads say total accounts for your calories while at rest during the day...
BUT...
I only wear my Apple Watch during my workout - for one hour a day. And I end up with sometimes a 50-60 calorie difference between total and active. So the answer of “it counts while you’re sitting on the couch for the total” doesn’t make sense. I know I’m not burning 50 calories driving 4 minutes to my gym.
any ideas?
