Mine has been pretty dead on but my husband's has been way off but in the high range (meaning it says his HR is like 160 when he knows by counting and timing it to a clock its like 175/180) so his records a lower calorie burn than is actually happening. The point is - in my fitness groups there are many people with your same profile who routinely (as in over a full year of tracking) burn in the 600-700 range for an hour long workout. I myself burn 180-250 calories doing a super crazy intense workout for 25 min - so if you double that it's 360-500 and just based on body types I should burn less calories than you by an order of probably 25% - so all this is to say, I think you are burning that many calories in Zumba or nearly that many. I also love the sleep part - finally I can prove to the world that I am actually AS BAD a sleeper as I always thought I was :) Great job and over more time you'll see it gets more consistent in tracking!Esclawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16861468513060076511noreply@blogger.com
