No, but I'm reading discussions about it over at Lyle's BR.com .
The funny thing is, that if my 30d averages for the Omron are correct, my own estimates aren't very far off either, sometimes by less than the Bodybugg.
Bodybugg has one flaw, viz. when you cycle or do another cardio exercise in which you move legs but not arms, like on the stairmaster/tread mill it gives a lower number.
The surprising part for most was to see how little energy gets burnt in the gym and how much influence just a longer walk has. Walking 1mile costs about the same energy as running that mile extremely fast.
The main reason to lift weights is the effect it has on muscle retention.
At least, that's the conclusion I drew from the discussions.
