I'm looking to buy a good HRM that tracks calories, time and, distance but it needs to cost under 100 dollars. What do you guys use? I'm really lost on shopping for these.

:) thanks

    Polar F7 is on sale for around $70 on Amazon.com
    Polar F4 is on sale for around $55*if I remember correctly* on Amazon.com

    I use a Pyle Sports ($26) and it has worked "Ok" for the past year, but I'm actually trying to get enough money together to get the Polar F7.

    If you need a time/distance/HR GPS solution, occasionally the garmin 110 forerunner refurbished models with the HR strap show up for under $100. Absolutely love mine.

    Get a Polar. You can find one well under $100. They're great watches - I've had mine for 7 years now.
  • I use a generic bluetooth low energy HRM (cost about 30GBP so you can find one for about 50USD) with the digifit.com iCardio app for the iPhone that does all that you ask and also can do lots more. Easily will come to under 100USD and it links to MFP to auto log the activities too.

    Polar FT4, I got it because it's waterproof so I can wear it while swimming. On the elliptical it's pretty close to the machines built in calorie estimate but it seems to be a bit high for tracking walking.

    I use to use polar FT4 but I found that either using one of the formula's gets me the same results and I can use Runtastic and it also does the same. Less to worry about on the road.
