    Use a HRM that tracks calories burned. I have the Polar FT4 with cheststrap and it is very accurate.

    I have found that I end up paying attention the my HRM more then my workout... You have to mess with it and it just drives me crazy... ya know if your sweating your doing it! Just workout as hard as you can and your good. (this is just my opinion of course) As far as mfp calories burned I think there a little high?? so if I work out for an hour I only put 30 minutes in here because if I see all those extra calories on here I will Ill eat them haha Good luck!:happy:
