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

It will since you are moving more it will assume you are taking more steps. Where you will see this is in the active mode? The application for this calculates a number of things, steps, miles, active minutes, calories burned, sleep activity. I only do steps and miles. Calories isn't good because it does this by calculating what it believes someone with a specific weight would burn over a given period of time. Actually if you sat on the coach and swung your arm back and forth it will assume those are steps as well.

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.

Yes, it can also give the same results in the metric system, as can most of their other models. Hope this helps and I wish you the best in your exercise and calorie tracking.

Yes it does. I just got mine going 2 weeks ago. I like it. It is several programs or you can ride manually. It does track calories, has a timer, a pulse rate monitor and can be used to give a recovery report based on pulse. The calorie counter is the 3rd number from the bottom in the functions it is monitoring. My calories counter always runs when in use in the manual mode and I assume always.

Yes. It tracks steps, active minutes, calories burned and distance. You can input a stair em tracker, but I haven't done so.

It will count it as steps but it also picks up rigorous activities. You will have to sync it with your computer in order to view your stats. I love mine! I have it synced with myfitnesspal app. It keeps track of steps, calories burned, water in take, calorie intake, sleep, and you can set timers to remind you to move. It really is a great product. Only thing I don't like is that the hot pink doesn't stay hot pink long. I've had mine 2 weeks and already buying a black band because the pink looks dirty and I can't get it cleaned.

Only if you wear the breast strap, which would be rather uncomfortable. I have the Basis now, which does that, but is not very good at measuring calorie consumption during activity. In any case, calorie count during sleep is rather uninteresting - the Basis shows I burned some 500 cal between midnight and 6:30 am and I would bet that this is within 10% of what it shows any other day, even after a hard workout when the actual consumption is higher.If you look for calorie count, I'd go with a Polar for workout and a Fitbit or similar with MyfitnessPal for the rest.

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

It tracks steps, miles walked, and calories burned. Once you get your account set up on line you can track these items plus track your calorie intake (with a little effort on your part). The FitBit has helped me to lose 16 lbs so far and it keeps you "honest".

I only use it while I work out to see calories burned during exercise so I know how much to eat to recover. I don't know how accurate it would be to monitor calories burned all day long as I doubt it takes in resting energy expenditure /basil metabolic rate.

Yep. Once you have it set up via the fitbit site and it knows your height/weight, the Zip shows you the following by default: Time, number of steps, estimate of calories burned so far today, distance walked today, and a "smiley face" that depends on how many steps you have walked. The calories burned and your distance is based on your height and weight and are not overly accurate. Via the fitbit site, you can have your Zip display all or any of these values. Very convenient once it is set up the way you like (a one time setup is all it takes).

Yes. Calories is one of the items it monitors and shows on the screen. I've never ridden with it displayed, though. I usually have the 'clock' or 'distance' on display.

I have the female version (gray with pink stripe) forerunner 110 and it DOES track calories! It displays once you've completed your run and saved it. Calories will appear underneath your time when you view your runs under the "History" option.

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.

Yes you can enter your weight. It also does tell how many calories are burned based on speed and distance.

not sure what you mean by metabolism. But if you are asking whether it tracks calories burned - then yes. And it does it two ways. First it has a baseline that is determined by the height and weight information that you enter. And then, when you take your heart rate - it will calculate the calories based upon that for a time period (not sure how long it takes to go back to the baseline). It's the only one I found in this price range that does that.
