Does anyone have the New Balance Heart Rate Monitor? How do you like it?

When using a HRM how do you calculate calories burned?

    Get one with a chest strap that counts the calories for you, otherwise it's not worth it, trust me. I had a new balance one without a chest strap and it was not accurate at all. I now have a Sportsline and I love it. I would also recommend the Polar F7.

    I have the New Balance N4. I really like it. It's easy to use, you can input age/sex/weight and it has a chest strap. The strap is really comfortable and I don't have a problem with it slipping down.

  • I just bought one from Walmart, Sportline S7... it's in the form of a wrist watch and one of it's "modes" tells you the length of your workout and counts your calories for you, once you program it to your specs. So far I love it and after comparing it to other charts, the calories burned seems accurate.
