Keep the original intervals
CDC explains that weekly activity can be spread into shorter periods. When logging a day, retain the actual intervals so an entry such as a walk does not also appear inside a separately counted journey total without explanation.
Mark overlaps clearly
For an editorial worksheet, use a start time, end time and task description where these are known. If two entries describe the same interval, mark the overlap rather than silently add both. Estimated intervals should remain estimates, and a tidy sum should not suggest stopwatch precision.
Interpret the total cautiously
Removing duplicate entries makes a record clearer; it does not classify intensity or prove that a person meets a recommendation. This guide is about record integrity, not a training target or health-outcome prediction. A professional can help interpret the relevant context where personal advice is needed.
