I would. I have found that MFP WAY overestimates on calories burned. I wear a Bodybugg and I am always under what MFP says for my calorie burn.0

600 hundred calories does seem like a lot for that. But you know your own body and as long as you don't overeat to make up for calories you didn't burn then I'd say you'll be fine with either one. I have to do that sometimes, lower my time to get an amt I think is correct, because I don't have a heart rate monitor that tells me exactly how much I've burned.0
