1 in 10 of us struggle to lose or maintain weight because of our metabolism, perhaps due to thyroid issues, PCOS, hypertension, diabetes or menopause. Even without a medical condition, everyone's metabolism is unique, which makes calorie calculators fairly inaccurate.

That's why we built the Gym Geek calorie tracker. Unlike other calorie tracking apps, Gym Geek adapts to your unique metabolism.

While most calorie tracking apps rely on a simple formula to estimate your TDEE, Gym Geek uses a method called Smart Calorie Adjustments™ to more accurately estimate your TDEE.

Each time you track your weight, Gym Geek uses a statistical model to see whether you are losing weight slower or faster than expected. It then adjusts your TDEE and calorie goal to keep you on track.

You can use Gym Geek to scan barcodes, search items from our 3.8 million item food database or quick track your calories and macros in a single tap.

We're now live on the App Store. Give it a download and let us know what you think in the comments below!

100 calorie fat burners are small amounts of exercise or physical activity that burn 100 calories in a short amount of time.

Walking a mile to the store instead of driving can burn an extra 100 calories. Cycling on a resistance bike can burn 100 calories in under 10 minutes. And even everyday tasks like household chores and gardening can burn 100 calories in 30-50 minutes.

Burning 100 calories might not sound like much. But do that everyday over a week, and you've burned an extra 700 calories.

👉 4 weight loss goals from half a pound a week up to 2 pounds per week.

👉 Adjusts your calorie intake based on your activity level.
