Count calories no sense

Hi, this morning I go out on my bike for about 3 hrs and burned around 750 kal.

How it is possible in dashboard I see “active” only 650 ??

    Because Active calories are not the same as Activity Calories. Activity Calories contain also the "passive" part - the RMR (Resting Metabolic Rate). For the 3hrs of the workout it makes in your case some 244 Calories of RMR (your pasive calories for the day were 1099 kcal at 13:30, hence 81.4 kcal per hour). It means the activity contributed with ~525 Active Calories for that day (769 total - 244 RMR). The remaining 112 Active kcal for that day (637-525) come from other common daily body and mind activity, not necessarily a recorded one.
