Heart Rate Monitor Help

jenikkinicole

I've decided I need a Heart Rate Monitor. I only have like a $40 budget. Any suggestions for a decent HRM in that price range?

when you get one can you post a review on it please? I'm in the same boat

I am going to Sports authority today to look for one. I googled and found that new balance makes one for right bout 40.00 and it does just about everything! Good luck!

Walmart has several by Sportline below/around that range. I just today got the $47 one and got it set up easily and just used it in a workout for the first time no problem. The signal from the chest band dropped a couple of times, but re-acquired quickly. It's enough until I have invested enough of myself in this exercise to reward myself with the Polar HRM/GPS watch I really want.

I have a New Balance one - found it at Kohls online and on clearance for under 30. Mio and Sportsline make some decent and inexpensive ones

I just bought the sportsline duo and it works great. It was $59

Target also has New Balance HRM's for around $40

Awesome thanks for the tips guys. I'm going to check those out.

I don't need a super fancy one, just want something that's going to accurately maintain my HR and help me keep count of my calories.

I'm finding Amazon has some pretty good deals right now and most with free shipping.

Anyone have any experience with Omron? Specifically the HR-100C? The reviews seem to be pretty good on it and it's a decent price $32.99 / reg. $59.99 with free shipping. )

I'm in the same boat. I want a decent one at a good price. I'm going to check out Amazon too. I saw some at Target I was tempted to get one the other day, but wanted to read the reviews first.
