The OwnCal calorie calculation starts when your heart rate

reaches 100 bpm. The higher the heart rate, the faster the energy

expenditure accumulation. 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).

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 percentage 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.

Exercise with OwnZone Low.
