I just purchased a polar ft40. Since I am trying to lose weight I should keep my heart rate in the fat burning zone right? But I'm working out on my elliptical and to stay on that zone I have to go pretty slow, like really slow. What's up with that? Am I doing something wrong?

    Go at whatever pace you are comfortable with. You'll still be losing weight and getting healthier. There are optimal "fat burning" and "cardio" heart rates.

    google "heart rate"
