I am looking for people who are around 250 and 5'7 maybe age 24 who have a heart rate monitor. I don't have one. I know everyone's heart rate is different. I just want to know what your exercise burns are.

on average how many calories do you burn in an hour doing elliptical, stationary bike, or treadmill at a medium effort?

on average how many calories do you burn doing an hour of aerobics?

I just want to see if the HRM people are about the same or wayyyy different from each other.

    I'm only 5' 4.5" and 41 and 170.8 pounds. However, I do use a hrm. My resting heart rate at 230 pounds was 54 and now I have been doing cardio for a good while and I try to train at times at my target heart rate, my heart is even more conditioned.

    I used to power walk/ jog back then and I could easily burn 1100 calories in hour. Now I burn about 700-800 running 6 miles. I really have to push myself now to burn calories.

    It's very hard to compare because there are so many variables.
