Default Calories Burned; Calculated by Heartrate Monitor
Just wondering how accurate the calories burned calculation is on heartrate monitors. I have a Polar, believe its an F4, and was wondering to what degree of reliability you can count on these things for.

I enter my height/weight/age, but get different numbers from the monitor, the cardio machines, and estimates I have found online.
