Okay, today's workout may confuse my calorie burn. Funny HR was pretty much the same throughout. It depends on the app or device for calorie burn. I got my new Polar HR 7 Bluetooth. transmitter and strap. I may need to go over the app (map my fitness MMF) This because it adjusts the calorie burn in (MFP my fitness pal) due to activity throughout the day and I am not wearing one of those devices. I am not wearing my Heart rate monitor strap and carrying my phone around with me all of the time. My phone did pick up without being hooked to me somewhere. Not a long distance though. Suggestions are in front of me. I wore it on my arm through cardio but facing me but a little toward the back. My Fitness pal sets everything I put to, aerobic, abs, yoga, as calisthenics? I used the Polar FT 60 heart rate monitor watch, Map my fitness app, Calories burned (android) app which uses info and average heart rate, net calories, and workout manager.
Two the Max 54 minutes, 125 average HR/ 159 Max, Map my fitness and calories burned per hour using net calories and the HR from both the MMF and my Polar watch which has not been more than 2 beats per minute, 391 calories. It is much more in the workout manager. FT60 gave me 343 calories. So, I used 391 calories. I listed this under aerobics on Map My Fitness. Okay next was STS ab circuits stability ball abs, 20 minutes, I used 80 calories but there was huge differences. I listed under abs in Map My Fitness, 93 bpm on my cell with Map My Fitness, 95 on Polar FT60, I used the lower BPM to check Calories per hour app. This was 20 minutes, Polar watch was 31 calories, calories burned net calories 76; Map my fitness was 102 calories, Workout manager was 99 calories. I logged it at 80 calories. I pretty much know myself and how hard I am working if it is going by HR. Okay Last was yoga. I had to adjust it in My Fitness Pal because I forgot to restart My Fitness Pal when I went on to a second workout. This was way off anyway. I know that there was no way I burned over 100 calories in 18 minutes of yoga that was pretty much relaxed stuff. Anyway I went between the Polar FT60 and Calories burned per hour. The full time I spent was actually 32 minutes, Yoga with Kassandra Achy Joints and Back Pain, FT 60 gave 56 calories and calories burned app was 53. I just used the 53 calories. Total time was 1 hr 42 minutes and my guess on calories was 524.
Edited to add I took off the nutritional stuff because this was way to long of a post. Just wondering what others use and if there is a better app for my android than Map My Fitness or I am not using it right.
