    I use the calorie burn from this before the MFP ones. This tracks your heart-rate and has a better idea of how hard you are working.

    I just bought this exact one (bronze womens version) from Amazon a couple of days ago. I too, am curious to see the calorie expenditure of my workouts in comparison with the data I have used from the MFP database. I'm also hoping that it is as easy to use as a lot of people have been touting it to be. Please post your findings when you use it as will I :)

    I traded my walmart HRM in a few months ago for this one and I love it, the calories are close to what mfp says, but it is way more accurate. I got it at Big 5 on sale for $75.00

    It is very close. usually within 40 cal when burning about 800, give or take.
