Omron Heart Rate Monitor HR-310

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone has had experience with this HRM. It has the chest strap, so it should be fairly accurate, correct? I'm taking a Zumba class, and would like to have an accurate count of my calories burned. I get the feeling I'm exaggerating with the estimate in MFP.

Thanks!

    I don't have experience with their HRM but I like that brand. I have their 7-series blood pressure monitor (wrist monitor) for my severely low blood pressure and it's very accurate--it's been tested against my doctor's office's machines a few times, as well as their pedometer that I got when I was in high school. It still works but I lost it when I moved--it's packed away, probably.

    I'd like to know if anyone has experience with this HRM as well.

    Thanks for posting the question, OP. I'm following. :)

    Sorry, I have never had an Omron HRM. I have a Polar F40 HRM. It has a chest strap, and I am really happy with it. I thought the strap would be uncomfortable, but I don't feel it at all. And I really like having it during my Zumba classes.

    Hope it works for ya!
