Ok...so I bought a HRM with calories burned feature. I didnt know until I got it home that it does not ask for weight. CRAP!!!!
It only asks for age and sex.
I said I burned 707 calories in 58 minutes of rolling stairs, elliptical and weights circuit.....sounds a bit high to me, so I just entered 58 minutes of circuit train/general. That gave me about 464 calories burned....I am 5'2 128 and 41......Is there an "avg weight" that these companies set there calculations on? I actually called the co. they are closed today. Should I just buy a different one?
What say you?

I would return it. But for the record, eliptical trainer burns a TON of calories, so it may not be that far off.0
