Dual Trainer Elliptical Cycles?

I have and use one of these, more for standing elliptical style than cycling, but I'm currious. Does the standing elliptical style on this machine still burn as many calories as the "Elliptical Trainer" option on MFP indicates? Or do I need to adjust the approximate calorie burn?

  • I just finish working out on my Forbes Riley dual rider for 20 min and this is the best way I can answer you question. On the dual rider indicator it read 114, on MFP for elliptical trainer it is 252 and on my wrist heart monitor it read 280 for 20min. on my dual rider. So because my dual rider does not have a heart rater on it, I go with by the reading on my heart monitor. I hope that helps.
