A HR monitor will work out how fast your heart is beating and once you input height and weight will work out the calories for you. For your interval training (of which I'm a huge fan) your already doing a great job. I normally go balls out for 30 seconds, normally top speed on tredmill then down to a fast walk for a minute. I do this after a 10 minute warm up and do it for about 20 minutes
