Looking for a new Polar HRM

So back when I bought my Polar, it was the watch AND the strap for like $300. Now I’m seeing they sell them separately. Is that right??

And I have no idea which one to get anymore. I can’t afford the $500 one, lol.

I want to see what my heart is doing because I have high anxiety and high BP so I like to keep tabs on my heart rate as I workout.

Any recommendations?

    I'm sorry to hear you struggle with anxiety. I do to at times, and I would wish it on anybody.

    What's wrong with your current HRM? We might have better advice if we know what you like or hate in these things.

    You can get just the chest strap for < $100, and use it with your phone. That may not be as convenient as a watch though, depending what kind of exercise you're doing.

    Any exercise is great for heart health, and for BP too. You're doing the right thing.
