No.. not THAT kind!!! (get your mind out of the gutter) :D the kind to heat your home with .. But since Ive got your attention ..Im just getting into this whole fitness thing and was wondering .. how many of you wear your HRM doing chores around the house ( IE cutting and splitting wood, mowing the lawn, laundry etc)?

    The only thing a HRM is going to provide during those activities is a record of your heart rate ... the formulas used to estimate caloric burn aren't designed to accurately calculate them.

    I have when I've done yard work only to make sure I didn't over do it later at the gym. It's surprising how quickly you burn calories working outside.
