Ok, so I got myself a polar heart rate monitor to get in shape... I entered my height: 6 2" weight: 223 age: 27 sex: male
Then I warmed up for 5 min, streched for 10 min, then jogged about 3.5 miles for 35 minutes... Also during that 35 min jog, my heart rate was between 175 and 185 bpm (i'm out of shape, i know) ...also, my resting heart rate is around 58-60)... At the end of my workout the calories burned via my polar stated: 1081
So is this accurate?? My buddies at work say, "no way, more like 400" -are they right? THanks!
