Hello!
Just wondering if someone can help me find out how many calories I burnt doing 45 minutes, 17 kms and rpm of around 62.
I input 45 on the elliptical onto the exercise weigh in tab but how does that know kilometres etc? Is anyone able to give me a more exact way say 1Km jogging on elliptical = ??? calories burnt?
Thank you!

  • There needs to be more options for th elliptical on MFP...it gives us one and I know it isn't correct for me and for the resistance I do!

    I use an elliptical at the gym and it gives me how many calories I've burned. I trust it since it has my weight as an input. It's usually lower than what MFP would predict but I'd rather be conservative with my estimate.
