This makes sense actually based off the error range of these devices. Additionally, it is probable that if you were to add up all of your workouts from the week and compare actual calories burned to device calories,any of these devices would be pretty close (except Apple Watch which seems to be heavily biased in one direction).

if you’re goal is to lose weight the priority is not to overestimate expenditure. So just take half the number it says you burned! Worst case scenario you get a slight bonus deficit which will help balance the innacurate calorie labels of products. You shouldn’t expect to burn a lot of calories in the gym anyways, calorie management is the main way you lose weight.

I've noticed the difference in calorie algorithms myself, each brand has its own set of values -- Fitbit tends to be on the "low side" (compared to other devices, not a lab) when estimating calories, and a lot of that seems to come from their look-up table where they use the exercise assigned (e.g. Ice Hockey has a different value than Power Walking) to adjust the rate of burn. Garmin skews higher and aligns with things like Wahoo and Polar. One thing I'm not positive about, but I suspect Fitbit's algorithm might be EXCESS calories you burned over basal metabolic rate, whereas some of the others appear to be cumulative. When you subtract your expected BMR from some of the higher ones, they tend to align with Fitbit. Best approach? Use this as a "relative" metric. If the watch says you burned +1000 calories above average, you were probably more active than usual .. or operating a jackhammer (tends to throw them off).

This is an astute comment and quite frankly the biggest component to this whole topic that was woefully missing in the video. I’ve been religiously using an Apple Watch since it first came out which was right before graduate school for me and I’ve observed many different things with it and other watches. I’m an exercise physiologist and a dietitian so I have a deeper background with this topic than most and I’ve came to some determinations that this video did as well when discussing it with experts but he missed some things. The equations are either poor, don’t use weight, VO2 max, etc. so they’re not going to be calibrated to each person, that’s a HUGE flaw. Also, these watches sometimes use “active” calories or “total” calories like apple who tells you what the different totals are whereas some do this but give you the “active” calories only which makes it much lower than the total calories. There’s no such thing as “active” calories, that’s dumb and isn’t how things are done with exercise research. We just take some means of measure like oxygen intake/co2 output or heart rate and base our calculations off that and potentially your weight depending upon which variable we’re using. I use ACSM equations and others and just use the watch data to get a decent heart rate average for the duration of my workout and put it in cells of a spreadsheet and have a more accurate equation that uses my body weight, VO2, etc. to get much more precise measurements based upon MY BODY rather than whatever the watch is using to make its calculations. There’s error in all of this but my method uses my bodies variables at least to help better predict it though it’s never going to be as good as gas exchange measurements done in a lab as this video pointed out. Overall I think this video was great, but missed a few of those small things that some people don’t know about these different watches.

I had an experience with a treadmill run where my fitbit read my heartrate as 195-210 for over 15 minutes. I got a runner's high, so I pushed myself a bit, but I felt genuinely amazing after the workout. The heart rate reading and the experience just don't match up at all.

You can still use the watch as a consistent barometer. I.e., at the start of my diet I was eating 2300 calories + whatever apple gave me from my daily workouts. I kept monitoring my weight and found 1900 calories + whatever weight loss my watch gives me is the sweet spot. I’ve lost 13 lbs in 2 months doing that

Exactly! Did the same and went -8kg in about 8 months, but with a couple diet breaks. Now I notice I've stagnated for the last 3-4 weeks so I will just bump the base calories down by 200 (I was on 1800) and that should theoretically start moving the needle again, slowly.

I noticed my garmin epix heart rate measurement would jump all over during workouts…probably due it moving around on my wrist too much or changes in angles doing push ups etc. I synced my Polar H10 chest strap to the watch and after doing that it was perfectly consistent throughout the whole workout. Having consistent heart rate data the whole workout is key for the watch to do it’s calculations correctly.

I lost 80 lbs in 8 months while wearing an Apple Watch Series 7 & learned quickly that the watch was inaccurate because I weighed myself in the morning & at night. I just now set my calorie goal to be 1,600 & know that I actually burn more like 1,200+ calories which is my true goal anyways. While I know it’s inaccurate, it still keeps me driven to reach that number, which has still made me healthier & more active & to be honest I’m completely ok with. Monitoring my sleep habits at least gives me some kinda data that I can go off of that I know when I had a good night’s sleep versus when I didn’t & has changed my sleeping habits to be better. I wish there were more accurate wearables, but for me it’s helped achieve my goals & live healthier so I can’t complain that much.

I wondered about this too. I only pay attention to my active calories burned and not total calories. Apple Watch will also tell you that for certain workout types, you're going to be estimated to burn calories at the same rate as a walk (which is what climbing workout says which is what I do), so it's fair to say that those type of workouts are totally just estimates. Would also have been interested to see less cardio comparison and a strength-focused workout.

I want to thank you so much for this information. I was using my Apple Watch to figure out how much I burn versus how much I eat to lose weight. I was always frustrated on why I wasn't losing. The answer was that Apple gave me a higher calorie burn rate versus the actual amount. I know people say never eat back your calories... But I love food. So I learned it's best if I take off my watch and focus on calories in. You've got yourself a new subscriber!

Rob at the Quantified Scientist has a ton of videos where he tests various watches against a Polar heart rate monitor. Apple Watch tends to be more accurate than many of the others for various exercises like weight lifting, cycling and running, but as he points out, this is just on him, and the weight and size and how you position the watches on your wrist are some of the variables to take into account.

@jeremiahromagnoli7389
@jeremiahromagnoli7389 4 ай бұрын
That's not going to be useful information. Calorimeters account for all of the energy stored as heat in the food, but they don't account for the heat that gets wasted during the act of utilizing the food's energy, ie. the thermic effect of food. Food labels generally use food specific atwater factors that do account for an approximate estimate of the food's thermic effect, which means the calorie count on the food label should be lower than the calorimeter reading. And neither, by the way, account for the fact that the average human only absorbs about 80-90% (as low as 30% or as high as nearly 100%) of the calories they eat, the rest is wasted and excreted in the form of urine and feces--although there is no way to uniformly account for this as calorie absorption varies wildly from person to person based upon genetics (for example, I have celiac disease which causes fat malabsorption), lifestyle differences (incl. avg calorie consumption, physical activity, fluid intake), and the composition of your diet (principally fiber intake and degree of food processing)

Honestly, alls I need is a rough estimate. I don’t need it to be exact. It becomes a problem when you are eating a certain amount of calories BASED on that number. It becomes the differential between a calorie deficit, maintenance, or surplus. And at 100 calories in either direction, over time, you will either lose weight or gain weight if you eat based on the number on the watch.

Hi. Nice video. Would you please let us know what is the name of the app on Apple Watch at minute 4:48? Thanks.

You should’ve done more tests to get the avg. I’d say 10 tests of each would’ve been better to assist the accuracy

The question is, which numbers got compared? There is a basic consumption that the body always has, even if you are not doing anything. Then there is the activity energy, which is additionally consumed during activity. With Apple, both values are added together for the period of activity. You can see this especially when you have spent different amounts of time on the identical activity. If the values from the other measurement system only show the activity energy in isolation, without including the basic consumption, the values cannot be compared as it was done in the video.

I’ll say this… when I was eating 2400 calories daily… my watch was saying I would burn about 23-2400 daily…. And my weight stayed stagnant … when I weighed 80 pounds more And was only eating 1500 calories and it would say I was burning 2500 calories , I lost weight… I wanna say from experience it’s accurate enough to see trends and make changes for weight loss

well i feel like if you’re in a 1000 calorie deficit then yeah you’re erasing any room for error 😂 but for people who want something like a 200-500 deficit this can cause a problems not knowing

with Cyling the equation is rather easy, if you have a power meter the calorie burn is almost a 1-1 ratio of Kj

I’ve always only taken wearable numbers and even calories I track in my lose it app as a rough general estimate and tweak according to results and what I’m seeing in the mirror, scale and how I’m feeling. But my thinking is it’s better to have the general estimate than not at all!

Well damn. Would love to see how off watches are in tracking workout metrics when running, like speed, cadence, heart rate…etc,

Awesome vid. Love your content! I feel Garmin is really good at running numbers, but sounds like there's some work to do with the cycling algorithm. I still wear chest strap for my targeted Zone 2 work (just to be sure). I like to verify the chest strap accuracy on incline treadmill walk. It's usually within a couple of points with the treadmill itself. So I definitely trust the chest strap more than the watch itself. On a related, but trivial, note about the calorie counts being inaccurate. I'm pretty sure Costco is undercounting how many calories are in a serving of their Organic Greek Yogurt. They say 170g == 100 Calories. But my trends show that not to be the case. Even though it's not exactly scientific, it's cool to have trends over a months or even years and be able to tell things like this.

most accurate thing is cycling with a powermeter on your bike, from that you can convert the watts put out pretty accurately into kalories. There is still some variance to it, but its as accurate as you can get without a lab I would say.

What you didn’t take into account is that most of those watches have combined HR. The watch is off because the wrist mechanism isn’t touching the screen correctly. You should do the same test with a HR.

Loved this. I think I will just subtract 15-20 percent of apples calories burned everyday and that should be close enough for someone just trying to stay fit/lose some weight.

Sorry if this has been asked/answered- I stopped relying on watch heart rate/calorie counts as I had read that as heart rate increases the level of inaccuracy does dramatically as well- so I use a garmin chest strap HR monitor synced to iPhone/fitiv app…. Were any of your readings from a chest worn? I couldn’t tell if when you mentioned garmin (and one screen showed polar) if they were chest strap HR monitors (I still take all numbers with a grain of salt… but wondering if some of the chest monitors are at least narrowing the margin of error)

I have been tracking calories on my Apple ultra for about 8 months and it seems pretty accurate because my weight is changing in line with my goals. I was going for a small deficit and lost a lot of body fat. Now I am trying to lean bulk and if anything I find I need more calories than the Apple Watch says I am burning
