I have been using a home Nordictrack to work out. It tracks my calories burned, but I wonder if I can trust the accuracy of the unit? The machine itself is quite old, and the numbers seem sort of high to me. Usually my 40-45 minute workout (during which I am sweating profusely and breathing heavily --not chatting on my…
