So I got a heart rate monitor for xmas, Im not sure how to use it. Last night I used it during my workout and it read my heart rate but I feel there is more to it. Can't you tell how many calories you burn from your heart rate and what not? Could someone educate me on a heart rate monitor?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Not knowing the type of HRM you have, it will be difficult.
I have a Polar FT4. I am able to input my birthday, height, weight, etc.... and it DOES calculate my calories burned when I'm using it.... along with my average and max heart rate.... and my heart rate throughout the exercise.
My HRM came with some simple instructions in the package for inputting my personal data and how to use it.0
