A better way to keep accuracy is take your heart rate after every 3 songs and write it down. Once you're done, do an average of those heart rates and use it in this formula
Men: C/min = (-55.0969 + 0.6309 x HR + 0.1988 x weight + 0.2017 x age) / 4.184
Women: C/min = (-20.4022 + 0.4472 x HR - 0.1263 x weight + 0.074 x age) / 4.184
Where HR = heart rate in BPM
weight = weight in kilograms
age = duh
This is a more accurate (though still not exact, more of a roundabout) way to figure out calories burned. You don't burn the same amount of calories for each step like DDR will assume. Example, a cross over will burn more calories. But your heart rate will reflect it and can be used instead. |
