According to livestrong.com's extremely basic calculations, someone who weighs 150 lbs. will burn about 167 calories during a 20-minute workout.

[weight in lbs] x 167 ÷ 150 = calories burned

    Anyone have suggestions for a good HRM that's reasonably priced? I'm looking to buy one but there are so many options out there.

    I'm 5'2, 129 pounds and my HRM said I burned 209 pounds today on Level 1. I'm wondering if the setting is wrong my my HRM. It's a timex, but I'm not sure which one.

    have you updated your weight on it ( that's if you've lost weight since having it) seems like a high burn for your weight my sweet x x

    For those without an HRM, Britta1229 posted in the another thread a formula from Jillian michaels' website. Basically for each 20 minute workout it's 1.089 calories burned per pound of weight. So 200 lbs burns 200x1.089 =217.8 cals

    Btw I found a new polar FT7 on eBay for $59 and it arrives tomorrow. Will compare these numbers against what the HRM says.
