Silly but important question.

What are those things called that you strap to your arm and it counts how many calories you burn during your workout or throughout the day....Also where can I find a cheap one?

Thanks soo much!

    they're heart rate monitors and you can find them just about anywhere; Target, Walmart, online......
    Cost depends on what you want it to do:)

    heart rate monitors do count calories. Calories burned depends on heart rate

    The ones around your arm are way to expensive for my budget..I have 1 with the chest strap that works great and it was 30.00...you just put on the chest strap & the watch that comes with it (the reciever) and it tells calories burned and heart rate

    body bugs are the ones you put on your arm to monitor calories from every thing you do. normaly worn all day.

    Heart rate monitors, have chest straps and go strickly by what you heart rate is during excerise to deterime how many calories you burn.
