Hi everyone.

I have noticed that the calories on my treadmill versus my Fitbit Blaze are very different. I walk at different speeds and inclines but mainly stay at 2-3mph at a 2-3% incline.

When I finish a workout my treadmill will tell me I have burned 230 calories while my Fitbit says 375 calories. Which one should I go by because calorie tracking is important to me and I don't want to do it incorrectly.

Welcome to the forums!

 

Two different technologies. They will never match.

 

When I come across this I go with the lowest to be on the safe side.
