- It takes into account all plausible activities of the relevant sports running, nordic-walking, hiking, cycling, mountainbiking, race-cycling, rollerblading, rowing, cross-country-skiing and snowshoeing
- The older an activity is, the less relevant it is, the formula is about like this: relevance_for_act_level = calories / body_weight / (days_between_activity_and_now ^ 2)
Your calories in the last months were:
Dec so far 17700
Nov 26700
Oct 31300
Sept 51000
So the explanation why your activity level sinks is that the high performance values of e.g. Sept are becoming less relevant since they are too far in the past.
Let somebody explain me algorithm of activity level calculation.
Last saturday I ran 58 km and after my activity level was 13.85 - about 0.15 more than before. Since monday day by day I run 10 km and day by day I lost 0.1 from my activity level since saturday It's 40 km more and my activity level is 13.5 now. All my trainnings are plausible. What's going on?
I've been using endomondo until i discovered Run.GPS ... i like it, but has two serious cons to new users:
1.- Training sesions can't be imported from other software (i.e. i have passed activities from endomondo to runkeeper, with all normal data: track, speed, time and HR)
2.- I can define manually old training sesions, but i'm a shell (and last two months my calendar is plenty of trainings)
Please, answer to uei65 (and me) ... can you make than manual defined training is fully operative ? (or better ... let us import GPS tracked with other software)
I also find the calculating of the activity level very strange.
Last week I cycled a route of 28 kilometers and the level has gone up 0.3 points. The next day I cycled a route of 37 kilometers with approximately the same speed and that only added 0.2 points to the activity level.
An FAQ, i.e. for the calculation of the activity level, would be nice. :)
This change is not enought. All the people is asking to can use the manual training added to improove the activity level.
Are you going to do? or not?
Please, take us a clear answer
The swimming trainings are part of my training schedule, but I have a problem putting them at my desktop pc because the calories burnt in swimming aren't counted. When I put the distance and the duration the calories aren’t counted automatically by contrast to my mobile phone where the entry is easier and works well except the touch selection of sport which is not sensitive but with a little effort it works. Is there any way to input the training to my desktop pc with the calories estimation?
It's weird to comment all manual added trainings as Training data plausible NO.
Many people train especially in the wintertime inside so gps recording is impossible. There should be an option to overrule the "NO" so manually added trainings count too
