I have a stationary bike, and when I ride it it tells me a certain amounts of calories I burned. However, the MFA tells me different, which should I go with? I usually workout the same effort.

    I heard that exercise machine are not accurate with calories counting since their are average calculation same with MFA. not sure is it is true. Do a search on google, there are various laboratory studies for this.

    Calories depend on Age, weight and HR. you may want to buy a HR monitor.

    Hey thanks, I knew something was up. I recently searched it up and the calories on the bike were off with online reports. Thanks for the comment.
