I feel...I totally AGREE with Kc, as far as the HRM. I feel they are waaay more accurate than the Machines. Just remember along the way as you drop those pounds, update your HRM with your lower weight so that it continues to calculate it correctly. <BR/><BR/>It is verrrry Frustrating to see the lower numbers and I have been fighting them for quite some time now. I just don't burn the calories I use to when I first started the program. And I am using the same HRM as before. Take for instance CardioX, the very first time I did that DVD for 45 min, I burned 375 caloties. It has been decreasing little by little ever since, this morning I only burned 250 with the same exact Dvd and HRM as well as intensity. It has been the same decline with each of the Dvd's. Like I said It was and is frustrating , but I just embrace the fact that I am nearing my goal weight and my heart is running MUCH more effecient than ever. I have brought on the bike rides in the eve and weekend to compensate for the lack of calories burned in a P90X session. It just takes a lot more activity to burn as many Calories as you want to burn.<BR/><BR/>I also notice on my HRM, while <BR/>I am active and burning, it seems just as hard as ever, but I don't often go up in the high 150 and 160's as before, I seem to maintain anywhere from 120-150. Which is still a good burning zone for me. You just got to put more activities in your day if you want to burn more...<BR/><BR/>Don't get too discouraged in the HRM numbers, if your doing the workouts and watching your eats, the shedding of the pounds will continue to go down...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-929232488391643423.post-38926742104033326172008-07-24T07:42:00.000-05:002008-07-24T07:42:00.000-05:00I would imagine that the HRM is more accurate than...I would imagine that the HRM is more accurate than you think. I can never go by the calorie burn on a treadmill or elliptical, because it is usually calculating the calories burned for a 150 lb person. With us being smaller (and female), we burn less calories. So the more weight you lose, the less calories you are going to burn, even while doing the exact same workouts. So don't get discouraged...be encouraged! Your losing fat and building lean muscle! (and the more muscle you build, the more calories your body will burn, even at rest! Yippy!!! Bring on the weight training!!! That's my favorite...well, that and running) :) <BR/><BR/>That is so cute that Brooklyn wanted to workout with you! Way to go Brooklyn!!!! <BR/>The boys like to workout with us any chance they get, and they LOVE it. We are teaching them the importance of exercise and good nutrition. By them seeing us take the time to exercise, and eat healthy foods, they see that it is something important that you do for your entire life, if you want to be strong and healthy.KChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18396429002961412543noreply@blogger.com
