Hey everybody!!!! I just got my 1st HRM. I the Bowflex Active Trainer 9.0 w/ chest strap. I was wondering of anyone else has tried this HRM? I have been using it today to track different activities throughout my day. For instance, I did my daily house work today for 95 minutes, and it said I burned 416 calories. I went to the store to do some shopping, 80 mins. showed a calorie burn of 269. Do those #s sound high to anyone? I never had a HRM before so I hope these are accurate. I did have to enter my age, height , weight & age before I started to use it. Any input would be great!!!!!
