So yesterday I ran 4.88 Miles in approx 49 mintues for a burn of 858 calories according to Endomondo but my Sportline Duo HRM said i burned 1111 calories for the same exercise. Which one do I believe?

    Which one is connected to your body and reading the electrical impulses from your heart, and which one is in your pocket guestimating based on time/gps?

    Still, 1000+ seems a touch high, but what do I know.

    I wear a HRM and I burn around 900+ cals when I jog 4.5 miles. My husband burns around 1100... It may seem high, but it's supposed to be accurate. Make sure all your info (height, weight, etc) is put into it..
