I am looking for a basic calorie counter\ heart rate monitor to track what I'm burning while biking, walking the dog, during Zumba and during 30 day shred.

Any suggestions?

    Polar FT4 or FT7, on amazon shipped for about $75. Anything less you'll be sacrificing accuracy for cost...and that really just defeats the goal of buying one at all!

    The forerunner 305 from garmin its well priced too and includes GPS which is great for cycling. Its another option for you.

    this is the hrm i got and i love it! super easy to use, it has a chest strap so its more accurate and you don't have to constantly stop and put your finger on some sensor to get your heart rate. comfortable strap and overall amazing product! it makes me look forward to working out so i can see how good i did when i'm done.

    forgot to mention, i paid less than $50 shipped!

    I agree. I have been using a Polar F6 that I purchased from Amazon over 1 year ago. Use it most every day, have not had problems with it. I do a lot of bicycle riding & see people with those big things on their upper arms. Who wants one of those? The Polar F6 has a wrist band the size of a big watch & a chest strap that no one has to see. Good luck!!
