    A lot of it depends on your fitness level and how accurate your data is.

    When I had a lot to lose MFP would to say 1,000 burnt and when I got my HRM it said 650 which was more accurate as I had entered a lot more details into it. These days though it is about the same.

    I always say a little less to be on the safe side. I would rather be under than over ya know :smile:
