Resting calories ridiculous

Former Member over 5 years ago

I just received the 245 yesterday - I wore it for the day mostly sat at my desk.

My total burned calories for the day was 6,079 - obviously this is not right!

Active calories (95) seem about right but resting calories (5,984) are ridiculous.

To be honest I don't really care about the calories, it just makes me think if this is so far off, how accurate are the rest of the stats!

Is there a way to fix this?

Thanks.

Resting calories (BMR) are calculated based on the user's settings. Make sure your age, sex, weight, height, Max HR and activity level are all set correctly.

Thanks for the reply.

All my user settings were correct but I ended up restoring factory settings and reconfiguring, now it seems fine.
