I am planning on buying a HRM to see how many calories I burn so that I can try to break the plateau of 130lbs I hover around. Any opinions on which is the best? I dance and do jillian michaels and Chalene johnson workouts at home when I can

    I have the polar ft4 and have been using it for a month just strength training at the gym. It works great so far and the band is discreet with a t shirt. Cheapest place to buy is ebay and I got it for like 60$

    I only use it for the calorie counting option. Based off of my weight loss since I have had it, I would say it is pretty accurate at counting.

    The best thing about knowing exactly what you burn is that you don't have to guess how many calories you earned.

    All of the Polar HRM are great! I love mine. You don't need to fancy expensive ones. My hubby got the FT7 and it works great! I have the Polar FT40. Both work wonderful.
