Since it's stationary, the only thing the watch has to go off of is the heartbeat. How precise is the calorie burn measurement when doing stationary biking? Has anyone ever tested it?
I usually do what i'd call moderate exercise, so enough that i can have a conversation, but still sweating and breathing.
The watch reads a range from anywhere between 450 to 700 calories per hour burn. Since I do this about 4-5 hours per day, it's a really big range.
To compare, I do a 7km walk at around 5.8-6.2 km per hour, and the watch says I burned around 350-380 calories during the entire walk. So that range is much narrower... just really questioning the stationary biking one...
