Does anyone else have a bowflex hmr? I was just wondering how accurate it was because I went on a walk the other day and it says I burnt 325 calories. I don't believe I was walking any faster then 3.5 and it was only a 42 min walk.

    You can try to compare it with what MFP says.

    Does it have a chest strap and is it calculated to your height, weight, age and gender? If it is then it prob. is correct.

    If not, then I'd still log that walk but don't eat all the calories back.

    325 calories for 42 minutes sounds about right, but you are 23. Is your HMR set up for your age/weight?

    It set up with my age and gender but not my weight I think I don't remember entering my weight!
