Oregon Scientific Heart Rate Monitors
Hi, I have a stationary bicycle. 1 hour of exercise says I burned 150 calories. My heart monitor watch which has my weight, age with a belt around my chest says I burned 850 calories. The internet sites quote anywhere from 800-1200 calories per hour for a fixed bike.
As I am counting my daily calorie intake, could you please help me understand if I should use 150 or 850 as an input for exercise.
THANKS!
Ok so I hav ea heart rate monitor the one where it comes with a watch and a little belt thing to go around your chest. Its no any kind of name brand I bought it from Fred Meyer’s it was like 30$ or something. so I don’t know how accurate it is. I am 23 5′4″ and weigh 140 lbs. my bmi is 24.1 fat percentage is 36 ish. thoes are just off a website so ? well when I wore the heart rate monitor I jogged at 4.5mph on treamill for 25 min. whith a 4 min warmup walk. the treamill counter said I burned 300 calories but my heart monitor said I burned 500 cal…thats a big difference. Which one is more accurate and why ??
my husband says to just use the lower one to know for sure I’m burning enough but I just want to know what is most accurate..cause 200 cal, thats alot.
I just finished my morning workout (treadmill power walk/jogg for 65 mins). The treadmill showed that I burned 349 calories and my HRM (Polar F11) showed 620 calories. Is my HRM off or the treadmill counter is off. I made sure the settings on my watch are correct. I am a female, 5′ 5”, and 144 lbs. Any suggestions??
I want to buy the Polar F6 HR monitor (watch) but i am wondering if I have to use the chest strap at the same time i use the watch?/ can I use just the watch or the watch depend on the chest strap?
Am looking to buy a pulse heart rate monitor watch, will it help me lose weight?
