Elliptical Calorie Counter
I do the eliptical and according to the elliptical machine I burned 438 calories...but when I post my elliptical use in my Workout Tracker it calculates that I only burned 128 calories. Which is accurate??

Accuracy
Hi,
Good question. Off the top, I would use the elliptical's readout.
But, in my experience, if you're moderately exerting yourself (not dying, but not able to comfortably talk/laugh either), 115 calories burned/burnt per hour is a decent, informal rule of thumb.
Good luck.
