HRM Help

ajp913

So i want an HRM... but there so freaking many with so many ridiculous features that I'm basically giving myself a headache trying to sort through it all.

Desires
1) would prefer an armband, as I'm barrel chested, but this is not a necessity.
2) I do not want something that requires me to subscribe (for free or at cost) to a website's services. I would prefer something that came with software that would allow me to download and keep all data on my computer without needing internet service (I live in the boonies... internet service is spotty at times).
3) I'd like to keep it around 100.00
4) I'm obviously looking for accurate readings to how many calories burned.

Can anyone suggest a product that's available in stores?

Thanks,

I picked up a Polar FT4, for me in the UK it was about £69.99. A lot of my instructors at the gym have this model and swear by it.

It doesn't have an armband but it does have calories burned, it's a chest strap that I use.

It doesn't require you to subscribe to anything as it keeps your last 10 training files on the watch. Hope this helps.
