For some reason I got large negative spares on all of it. Probably because some of my choices did not add up to 24 hours but I’m guessing more than 24 hours a day. I feel like it would be better if there was some way you could make it so those choices about how much time you spend doing what had to add up to 24 hours so no negative spare results. Didn’t feel like going back and redoing it either since sliders weren’t very good on my phone.

I like this but it may be easier to start by asking questions for each of the slider categories and then spit out the filled in sliders and results. Maybe for some of the difficult to quantify times you can have suggestions. Just a thought but I like this and want to spend some time to track myself now

This is looking to find out whether you are at least occasionally physically active, or have been living a sedentary lifestyle for an extended period of your life.

Some research indicates that being physically active can extend your life by reducing many major mortality risk factors including arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus type 2, dyslipidemia, coronary heart disease, stroke, and cancer. The first study below suggests that all-cause mortality is decreased by about 30% to 35% in physically active as compared to inactive subjects.

Then set the week days and the weekends the same and make them half of what you work during you ON weeks.

I'm baffled that so many people are struggling with the idea of estimating average activity in a week. This isn't science; just estimate something close and look at the output.
