    I asked this once, too. Depends. If it's Your machine and only you use it, then you can go by that. If you're using one in the gym then it's been used by so many body types that the computer isn't going to be that accurate, even when you put in your own stats. I finally broke down and got an HRM to use. In general, MFP was closer.
