First measure our success by how your clothes feel and any notable muscle gains and apparent fat loss. As others stated ignore what the machines say, the MFP calories burned are pretty close, I have checked several with a Polar F7. Also ask close friends, take monthly photos in swimsuit, and compare. :smile:

Probably shouldn't log the calories from your job. That is what the settings are for. If that is what you meant you were doing. I personally only count working out and cardio activities.

I love hockey. Play over an hour every few weeks as a reward to myself. I have always leaned to the conservative side with my calories burned, except with excercise that is continuous, like cardio and videos, for those i use the Polar FT7 and use its calories. Also as one guy said in another thread the HRM does not reduce…

Polar FT7, and definately purchase at Heartratemonitor.com. best prices on the web. fast free delivery. I have had mine for 4 weeks and works great.

Do not buy the Sportline brand found at Sports Authority. I purchased a mid range version and it failed within 3 months. They would not replace it as I had not purchased an extended warranty. The Sportsline poeple do not return my calls or emails. Buy a Polar brand HRM and buy it from someone who will back it up, just in…
