Does anyone know how to link your HRM to MFP?

I have heard that people somehow link their HRM to MFP to upload the data. I just got a Polar HRM monitor and wanted to know how to go about doing that....

    I've heard you can't link the data from a fitbit account to MFP. However I don't think you can sync data with a HRM. I may be wrong.

    I have no idea how to do that. I just create custom workouts and enter the info from my HRM like that.

    Fitbit does. HRM's don't.

    If your HRM is web based, like a Garmin running watch, there may be the capability for it in the future.

    Guess that is how I will do it too... thanks! Did you find that you were burning a lot more (or less) than MFP told you?

    Right.

    I just override the calories burned that MFP reports with whatever my HRM tells me.

    I was burning way less. Very happy I got a HRM for that reason :)
