The OwnCal calorie calculation starts when your
heart rate reaches 100 bpm. The higher the heart
rate, the faster the energy expenditure accumu-
lation. Energy expenditure depends on body
weight; the heavier the weight the higher the
energy expenditure. Men's calorie expenditure is
more intense than women's at the same heart rate.
The energy expenditure measurement with Polar
Heart Rate Monitor is most accurate in continuous
activities such as walking, cycling and jogging.
Polar Heart Rate Monitor shows the energy
expenditure in kilocalories (kcal).
1 kilocalorie (kcal or Calorie) = 1000 calories (cal).
Up
When you expend calories, your body actually uses
fat and carbohydrates as energy resources. The
amount of fat from the total calorie expenditure
varies between 10% - 60%. The rest (40% - 90%) is
mostly carbohydrates.
The lower the heart rate, the bigger the fat percen-
tage is of the total energy expenditure. If you want
to control weight by exercising, it is recommended
to aim at as big a fat percentage of total energy
expenditure as possible. Exercise at the lower limit
of your OwnZone.
In models M61 and M62, exercise with OwnZone Low.
