Activity levels are different levels you achieve for all of the activity accumulated throughout the day. Whether using a fitness tracker, or eGym equipment, creating workouts and tracking them through the app, logging a group exercise class, etc. you earn activity points. As you accumulate more points, you advance through the different levels. If you change your activity over time, you will move to different activity levels (either advancing or moving backward). For more information on how eGym calculates activity levels, please read more on their blog: EGYM Activity Level
