Completed first walk - calories seems way too high?

[Jack_Yaz]

For info, I'm 6'3" 280lbs.

I've just got a Blaze, having had a One for many years. It automatically detected my lunchtime walk, but the calories burned seems rather high! Every online calculator shows the actual figure should be much lower than the 833 its logged. Is it including the BMR in that or something?

[SteveH]

yes, your BMR calories will be included in the totals shown.

[Jack_Yaz]

I understand in the total, but for the single activity it shows 833?

[SteveH]

It may be valid - your heart rate was quite high during the activity and this will impact your calorie burn calculations meaning that the total may be quite higher than your One would record.

True, I didn't think of the heart rate implications!
