    Before I got my vivosmartHR, I had found a site that you could estimate calorie burn by using your heartrate. http://www.calories-calculator.net/Calories_Burned_By_Heart_Rate.html

    You enter your age, weight, HR and minutes of exercise. I guess if you don't have a heart rate monitor, you could take your pulse a few times for 6 seconds and add a zero to the end, or for more accuracy, take your pulse for 15 seconds and multiply by 4. Then just average it out to get an estimate.

    This is one of the main reasons I got my vivosmartHR though....I LOVE being able to get a more accurate idea of how many calories I'm burning during all kinds of exercise.

    I don't buy it. I put in all my workouts this week and it gives me 100-200 calories for each day than my fitbit HR does. If I ate those back, I wouldn't lose.
