Percentage of exercise calories

I've been sticking to eating back 50% of my exercise calories. I wear a Polar heart rate monitor when I work out, but I know nothing is 100% accurate. But after logging everything for today I will be eating back 70% of my exercise calories. Is that ok?

Since you are supposed to eat all of them back, and inaccuracy can go both ways (too many or too little), eating 70% back should be fine.
