According to my shiny new Polar HR monitor, I just blew through 941 calories with P90X plyometrics. WHOA.

    Which model did you get? I'm seriously considering it.

    It's the Polar FT7. You can find them for $80-$90 online I think. I got mine at Sports Authority. You enter in all of your physical info and it monitors your HR and calculates the # of calories burned as you work out.

    Sounds like I need to get one of these. Right now I trust the treadmill and the MFP estimate for cardio when lifting weights. Thanks for the info!!!
