    I love my Pyle Sports HRM PHRM38. It seems to be a great hrm for those on a budget. I have the pink version, but it comes in other colors.

    Features:
    - Time/Date
    - Present HR
    - Max HR
    - Avg HR
    - Target Zone Setting
    - 1/100 sec stopwatch
    - Calories Burnt
    - Daily Alarm
    - User Setting (age, weight, vo2 max)
    - Led backlight
    - Energy Saving Function
    - Display Off
    - Water Resistant 33 feet/10 meters/1 ATM
    - ability to change battery in chest strap and watch

    The only problem I have with it is the watch is pretty big. They didn't scale it down for a female, but I can't complain too much when I only paid $26 for it. I would have gone with a polar, but I'm on a tight budget and this seems to work well. It doesn't have all the features of the more expensive ones.
