HRM help...
I recently bought a Polar FT40 heart rate monitor which I have been using during my Les Mills Combat home workout DVD. I am wondering, are the calories calculated by the HRM net or gross calories (so do I need to subtract what I would usually burn in that amount of time not working out). Hope this makes sense. TIA
