My hubby bought me a Nordictrack E5vi elliptical. We got it put together last night and this morning I did one of the preset workouts. 20 minutes... it shows 926 distance (no clue what that means) and I burned 229 calories. I didn't have to put in my weight so how does it know that is all i burned? I am trying to do some research and figuring but I am having no luck. On my fitness log I put 20 minutes on elliptical and it shows 419 calories burned. I am just a tad confused. I hadn't played around with the console much so maybe all my answers are there I just haven't found them yet :D

Anyway - great workout... lots of sweat... muscles are sore... feels like its gonna be a good day!!!!
