Does it monitor calories burned throughout the day?

You have to keep checking your heart rate. Mine no longer works and I have had it less then a year.

Yes it does. You will have to reset each day though cause if you don't it will keep count of calories burn all the time and doesn't reset itself.

If u keep it running it will. However, this watch has become unreliable. It will give me a hr reading of 78 after I've been going strong for at least 3 minutes. I would not recommend this watch. Currently in the market for a new one.

I don't believe it's meant to be used for tracking a whole day's calories, only because you tell it when to start and then you have to hold the button down for it to take your heart rate and update. I stopped using it not long after I bought it. The batteries don't last long, which means it doesn't track correctly at times and loses the info.

You have to wear the chest strap for it to indicate your heart rate. I do not think this device would register calorie burn.

Yes it sure does. It tells you the amount of calories that you have burned and is read as kcalories.

Nope. You have to find an online calculator to calculate calories burned based on heart rate.

No, but the ability to log your activities has a section where you can chart non-walking activities. If your bike is at the gym you should be able to estimate how many calories you burn, as most gym bikes have this. Then enter it as an activity along with the calories and you can make it a "favorite" so you can enter it each time.

The watch features a week-long bar graph that shows daily information (steps, calories, distance, sleep) but ONLY in graph form. I haven't found a way to see the numbers for those days (ie number of calories burned).

Yes, unless you never move your arms...! The unit strongly picks up arm movement, maybe even above foot movement. It would be useful to pause and check heart rate. That allow unit to figure calorie burn through the day, and particularly during activity.

No, it does not count calories. It acts as a stopwatch and counts your heart rate.

I'm not aware that it will track calories burned, however, it is a great heart rate watch.

You can do any excercise with it. Having said that, it will only tell you how many calories you've burned and what your heart rate it. There is not a function that will tell you how many stairs you've climbed or what pace you're climbing them.

No in that it only displays info as it changes and is not recorded. I use it with my True treadmill to monitor my heart rate and allows treadmill to maintain desired heart rate during workout.

It does count calories burned. It also is a workout/run timer, counts steps taken and seems to be fairly accurate so long as you set it up correctly.

The watch comes with a sensor and chest strap to monitor your heart rate, but you can choose to not wear the sensor and use it as a watch only if you wish. Cory is right; although the heart rate is accurately recorded, the calories burned is not. Don't rely on it for that.

Yes, I just tried it to see. It will count distance,calories, pulse, everything in either direction.

It DOES show calories burned. The two people below are wrong. After you completed the workout you get a summary of how long the work was, how long you were in the "zone" (set up by you), avg hr, max hr, calories burned. I had this watch for about 4 years now.

No heart rate monitor is required. It will read your heart rate while on your wrist. It tracks your calories by how much it estimates based on your movements. So even if you dont wear it, you will find estimated calorie burn in your watch. If you are looking for actual calorie burn while work out then this watch is not helpful. Also step counter is not accurate. It sense based upon the movement of your hand not step.

as far as i know this watch/health pedometer does not show heart rate. it shows calories, steps and miles and time.
