Does anyone have one?
I am in maintenance now, and had a flex. I upgraded to the charge HR, but my husband told me to take it back and get the surge. So I did.
However, it seems to be giving me more calories for the same workouts the flex did, and when I ran 5 miles it took me closer to 10k steps. With the surge I ran it at 9k steps.
Anyone else noticing that things seem increased with either the charge hr or the surge, and if so is it possible it's overestimating? And yes, I know it's all estimations but a 5 mile run with my flex took usually 10k steps and burned 400 calories but with the surge I'm doing it in 9k steps and burning 500-600. Just seems like it's off or maybe the flex was off the whole time. Who knows.
