It is. I don’t think it takes into consideration body weight when calculating what you burn. I’ve got a couple of websites I double check on. I wish the app would tell you the difference between light, moderate, etc too.

I wouldn't know. Exercise and I haven't been speaking for several years.

@HOLLOWANN I use the desktop version of FatSecret, and supposedly it does take my weight into consideration, but still, I think the calculations for calories burned is way too high. Which is a shame, since I'm trying to use this feature to compare to calories taken in. What other sites do you use for comparison?

https://www.sparkpeople.com/resource/calories_burned.asp?exercise=60 http://calorielab.com/burned/ Are two of them I use. You can plug in your weight. The first one I found today. I like the fact it describes what it is considering in its calculations. The stationary bike calc took into consideration moderate resistance and things like that. Hope this helps!
