    Depending on the DVD you do, it could be. And it also comes down to how accurate your HRM settings are. I recently did a new Fitness Test on my Polar HRM, and I now burn 50 calories less than I did a few days ago for 30DS L1. It had been months since I changed the settings on my HRM, so it had become less accurate, giving more than it should.

    Also, I don't know anything about your brand of HRM, but I assume it is chest strap, which will be more accurate than a wrist monitor.

    Yes, I use my Polar FT4 with a chest strap, everytime I workout. I mainly do DVDs and it is very accurate.
