Which do you use and why?
I use my HRM, which is a Polar FT7 and allows weight and age entry.

I was using what MFP suggested...but just went out Saturday and bought a HRM.. love it..so much more accurate... I have the polar ft4... I guess the older to your model--but it does what I need it to do!!0

I use a polar watch, but really do not care about the calories burned. I use mine mainly to get an idea of the intensity of any workout session at the end. It is also helpful to watch how ones fitness level improves. The time my HR slows down now is far quicker than before.0
