When did this start? Wed?
Not to burst anyone's bubble, but I think the Garmin overstates calories...
That said:
Wed - 1412 c: 45' on a road bike on an indoor trainer 662 calories; 45' run outside 8:10 pace, 750 calories
Thur - 600 c: 45' swim (2100 yds) moderate to vigorous swimming0 -

Maybe not the best choice of words - simply implying that unfortunately the Garmin is not the most accurate source for caloric information.
Example... 38.3 miles @ 2200 calories is pretty high. Based on limited info i'll guess we are roughly the same weight... at 21mph, over moderate terrain, I'd be hard pressed to burn 1800 calories in 38 miles.
Not trying to be negative, just pointing out, unforutnately, Garmin is probably 10-15% too high.0 -
wow....7000 calories is an amazing goal...i have found since i started using my HRM from polar that i really push myself to get a better/higher number at the end of each workout....7000 is too much for me as a busy working mom but i will do my best to see what i can do and report in here....i use the polar FT7 HRM....
wednesday - 482 calories burned
leisurely walk during lunch 39 mins - 157 calories
C25K run after work 39mins - 325 calories
7000-482=6518 calories to go0 -
Thanx I will take a look around. IT would come in handy because I don't always know how many calories a certain exercise burns0

Friday - 2:23 bike ride / 40.5 miles @ 17mph.
According to Garmin / Powertap: 1650 calories (according to MFP 2300!)
Stick to the 1650 I guess. So that's 3662 in 3 days.
35 degrees at 6am when I stared my ride. Fun fun.
Good luck everyone. Just get out there and move today!0 -
