    They help you calculate your calories much more accurately based upon how hard your heart is working to accommodate exercise.....This is my understanding--but I've been wrong about things before:)

    depending on what hrm (heart rate monitor you get it will tell you:
    - heart rate during exercise
    -how long you are working out for
    -calories burned.
    - in zone (the target heart rate that burns fat)

    other features of them might be, gps.

    I have the polar ft4 and I love it. It also keeps a record of the last 10 workouts.
