    If you don't mind spending the extra money, buy FT7

    Not sure the difference, I love my Polar FT7 and would recommend it
  • Thanks so much for telling me about the sale...I've had my eye on the FT7 for weeks now!!

    Major differences between the two is the FT7 stores more history (100 compared to 20 workout) and the FT7 has the ability to download data to a PC if you have the optional cable. Other than that, they are almost identical.

    If you get the FT7, not only can you upload you data for analysis on polarpersonaltrainer.com, you can join challenges and participate in a great fitness community!

    For the upload on the FT7, you will need an optional accessory called a Flowlink (about $50). I do not work for Polar, but I am one of their customer Ambassadors. I love the company, their online tools and their products.

    They have been an absolute key to my success!
