A note about the Calorie display: No exercise machine can give you an exact calorie count because
there are too many factors which determine exact calorie burn for a particular person. Even if
someone is the exact same body weight, age and height, their calorie burn may be very different than
yours. The
Calorie display is to be used as a reference only to monitor improvement from workout to
