Does anyone know if the Polar F6 calorie count is a reliable figure?

    If you programed it for your height and weight - it should be about as accurate as you are going to get.

    I usually look at my HRM a few times per workout just to make sure the sensors are reading right, etc. Just a gut check.

    Does the f6 have a chest strap. If not it is probably not as accurate as the ones that do (FT4 or the FT7)

    It does have a chest strap. It just doesn't have the anti-interference stuff that the F7 has.
