Does any one know of a good heart rate monitor that not only monitors your heart rate, but also measures distance gone, and calories burned?

    I love my polar monitor. You enter your personal info once to set it up, then wear the watch and chest band when you exercise. It's easy and works great.

    I have a polar that works well. But it does not have distance calcs. My husband uses a Garmin one when we cycle which does all of that, but it's rather bulky which is why is stays attached to the bike! He uses his polar for the gym. Those 2 companies seem to have the best HRM's that I've seen and read so far.

    Hope this helps.

    To track distance you need one with a GPS so they do get a little bulkier. I plan to get a garmin. Right now after I walk I come home and plot my course on Google Earth to see how far I have gone.
