There has been a lot of talk recently about people eating their junk food, and separately about Heart Rate Monitors so here is some simple Math to justify it
One Big Mac = 540 Calories and Cost $4
One Heart Rate Monitor$60 or 15 Big Macs
Here is the pay off though
Treadmill workout says I just burnt 194 calories
MFP says I should have burnt 267 calories
Heart rate monitor says I burnt 557 calories or that whole Big Mac, or a Bottle of Wine, or a Reasonable dinner.
For a small investment you an feel way better about your workout!
