Okay, I just saw a post about the Garmin HRM. I have a Nike Triax c6 and need to buy a chest strap replacement. Before I spend the $50 on it, I'd like to see what everyone thinks is the best one. I'm interested in monitoring the calories burned for my workouts. Which ones do y'all think are the best.

    Before I bought my HRM I read a lot of forum posts & the best reviews were for Polar, particularly the F4 & F6. I ended up getting the F6 a few weeks ago & LOVE IT! It tracks time, calories burned, time spent in cardio training zone, min & max heart rate, & it stores the information for the week so you can review it. I've also read that there's a way to upload the information, but haven't figured out how to do that. It's also waterproof so it's okay for swimming, but you can't press buttons on it while in water.
