Your Heart

How does a heart rate monitor calculate the amount of calories your burn?

I heard that you cannot figure out how many calories your burn by using your heart rate so what does a heart rate monitor use to show you the amount of calories burned?

It’s just an estimate. Most ask for height/weight and age. So it’s an estimate based on your heart rate and those other variables. It’s only an estimate though.
