Those stairs kick my ass but why does it always say I burn more on the bike?

Ok heres the deal when ever I ride the stationary bike Ill set that shit up for pretty much maximum resistance and ride that shit for like 20 minutes and it usually says I burn about 350-400 Calories. Now when I do that stair machine man I'll do that shit for 10 minutes and it kicks my ass 100% more than that bike but The calorie count is never even close to what it says I burn on the bike I just don't get it.

Do you enter your weight in as a factor on one of them and not the other?

B True

[Deciever]

also in your post you said you were doing the bike for twice as long.. that could be why too

Also, I wouldn't put a whole lot of stock in those calorie counters on bikes and stairclimbers. They're not particularly accurate.
