HRM overestimating calories burned?
I have today bought a crivit sports HRM and after completing week 1 of C25K it tells me I have burned over 800 calories! Am I correct in assuming that this is grossing over estimating? The HRM has a chest strap, which I used. Any idea what it's more likely to be? Any help very much appreciated! Kayle
