Can anyone advise if this is an 'ok' watch?

    Thought this best to ask here, rather than starting a new thread?
    ....wore my new toy last night :) First for an hours hill climbing, and then still had it on for my first 30DS. The calories burned it's giving me is a good bit less that MFP predicts. Whay is this, and which should I log?
    TIA

    Log what your HRM says. If it's set up with your height, weight, age and sex then it's going to be more accurate then what MFP says.
    I got a Polar FT7 yesterday and I burned in 50 minutes what the treadmill says I burn in about 25 minutes. Def. over estimating before.. and now I'm happy I'm not.

    Hmmm deffo challenge finding a HRM that has a chest strap that can reach around my chest... but the other day I saw someone jogging and they had a leg strap instead.
    Is this normal?
    If so, where do they sell them? :D
    Also, the hand ones that look like gloves?
