Are the "calories burned" on a Polar Heart rate monitor accurate? - polar heart rate
I bought my HRM after Christmas and really enjoyed it. However, I am often asked about the accuracy of the amount of calories burned. I find no information on the Internet about it. Any help would be very grateful.

Not only an estimate. The calorie consumption could significantly change, even for 2 persons of the same weight, depending on muscle mass and frequency of exercise. Thus, the use of calories and use them as a golden rule for comparing a training session to another to see if you burn more or fewer calories. Use heart rate monitor to get your heart rate zone as possible during training.
