Ok, I'll readily admit, that despite owning a new HRM for over a year now, I have not really used it, either properly, nor to its full potential.
I seem to use it merely to confirm what I already know whilst on the bike i.e. I am idling and could go faster or I am breathless and incapable of any more effort.
I think the best place to start, would be to fully understand the readings obtained. So, the first one that I would welcome opinion on is "KCal".
This obviously means Kilo Calories and a reading of say, 992 equates to 9920 calories. But what does that mean to a cyclist in training? Should I even be watching this reading? Can I use this reading to help with my current objective to lose 7 kgs?
Any input welcomed!
