l use the under armor track my walk app. It synces with the my fitness app. Under Armour has a whole suite of free specific apps for each exercise with many options. Mine has specific cardio and strength exercises and reps that can be tracked.
My tracking weight is synced from the my fitness app. The app tracks how fast I’m moving and how many steps, miles I’ve traveled. Based upon my weight/speed/distance it tracks how many calories I’ve burned.
I sync that result up to the my fitness app. Some chose to put their exercise into their allowed calorie intake. Some don’t. I just use my exercise as icing on the cake. I still keep my food calories well below my goals.
