okay so i bought a hrm. not an expensive one but not the cheapest(40 dollar one). its a sportline S7.
the thing says i burn 15 cal/min sitting still!!! is that humanly possible!?!?
if not do you know how to fix it since i obviously dont know how to use it?
if so then to calculate calories burned do i take the 15x(min) then subtract tht from the total???
thx in advance

You do burn calories just sitting still. Your heart beats and other stuff going on in your body cause you to burn calories all day and while your sleeping. Not sure if 15 a minute is accurate...did you set the age/sex/weight feature on it?0
