I have been reading on many threads how much people use a heart rate monitor when exercising and would like to know what exactly they do and how to use them. TIA!

    They measure your HR and estimate an amount of calories burned. People use that estimate as a way to gauge calories burned through exercise as part of their calorie tracking.

    Do you need help estimating calories burned through steady state cardio?
