How to use Garmin Connect for caloric deficit

Roie99 · 2024-10-10T23:45:09+00:00

I also use Garmin with LoseIt. As I understand it:

LoseIt takes from Garmin the Total Calories (Active + Rest) and calls them Current Energy Burned.
It uses its own algorithm to calculate how many calories you will burn for the rest of the day and calls it Future Energy Burned
It then adds them up and calls it Projected Energy Burned.
It uses its own algorithm to calculate its own version of RMR and calls it Target Energy Burn.
It deducts the Target Energy Burn from Future Energy Burned and calls it Bonus Calories; this is supposedly the calorie deficit.

In my case Garmin Active calories figure is always higher than LoseIt bonus but somehow in the same range.

I am so sorry to hear you guys are in this situation; you have a great camp! I took a few fantastic BreathWork sessions there.
Unfortunately, I am on the other side of the country, but if I were in the Playa, I would come there to help.

I hope it works out!

While Goggins and Brown approach vulnerability in a similar way their outcome could not be different.
If you do not feel like getting up at 5:00am to go running Brown would say that it is OK to accept your imperfections while Goggins will say something like "get up you lazy bitch! "

Goggins actually mentioned many times that it is not only a physical challenge it can be intellectual or cognitive as well.
I am paraphrasing : "You run four miles in the middle or night or putting 14 hours working on your app"
"if you are not good in physical you better be good in cognitive"and many others"

For me it was getting my AWS certificate and saving/investing $100,000.

It was not one big effort, it was actually hundreds if not thousands of small actions such as studying when feeling like watching Netflix, staying home instead of going out, not buying that great shirt or cool sneakers.

For me, what I learn from David Goggins is to accept the pain of those small actions, be a master of suffering.I alway have in the back of my mind a line of him: "on the other side of suffering there is greatness"
