I have an app called stepz that counts how many steps I did, and it shows me I burned 200 calories, while the treadmill says I burn 415. Which one should I considered?
Thanks

  This calculation lines up with what the treadmill at my gym says and my fitness band. I have an UP24.

  treadmill is probably closer but it will be 20% off or so with out knowing your HR. I HRM makes a big difference for best accuracy
