I recently acquired a HRM and what a palaver it is getting use to it.

However, just a bit of question pls. On the training values, there is a section that says " calories consumption" and usually there is a display of it at the end of my exercise, do anyone know what this means?

My reckoning is it should say calorie burnt and not consumed.

How does the HRM know how may calories I have consumed and how do one consume calories during exercise?

Somebody please help. Thanks. OH ps just in case anyone has this particular brand of HRM it's page 32.

    Calories consumed is the same as calories burnt. It's just the calories that your body consumed or used to be able to perform whatever exercise you were doing.
