I got my body bugg last week and have been wearing it and love it BUT today I decided to compare it to my polar F6 during my workout and now I am so confused!?! I worked out (p90x and treadclimber) for 90 min and it was a hardcore, shirt and shorts soaked kinda workout and my ending reads were: polar says I burned 1023 calories HR between 179-203 and the body bugg says I burned 680 so as you can see this is a BIG jumb so is there anyone who could offer me some help as to why there would be such a big difference? THANKS!!!xoxo

    The bodybugg doesn't use a strap for your heart rate does it? If not, then I would say the Polar is more accurate since it is taking your heart rate into effect and not just your height/weight.

    Yeah, I would say the Polar F6 since it has a strap that is actually measuring your heartbeat. Great job!
