Heart Rate Monitors

jupdyke

What kind of heart rate monitor do you all use/recommend? I have one, but I'm not happy with it. I have a watch style one that I have to push a button to get my current heart rate percentage. Half of the time it doesn't register. When it does, it is usually way off, which then throws my calories burned off. I'm looking for one that you just wear and it registers automatically and accurately whle I work out. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Jen

None, but so far, though I might like one, not having one hasn't impeded my weight loss.

I have a Polar FT-4. I have been using it for about 3 years and have no complaints. It gives constant update on heart rate and calories burned.

I love my Polar FT4.

I will definitely check this one out. Is this a wrist watch type, or, worn on a strap around the chest?
