    Polar H7 here. I have it linked to my iPhone through the Digifit app. It syncs my workouts to Fitibit, which then syncs to MyFitnessPal.

    This is a link to a HRM I just bought for my daughter who has an issue with her heart. She uses it in Zumba and we have checked it against medical heart rate monitors and it is extremely accurate. Also tells calories burned. Here is the link:

    That is so funny. The things we have to do to make it easy.

    Sounds like what I want to do, though. I just don't know what is compatible with iPod 4th gen. I think Polar WearLink for Nike will sync, but I don't think that gets back to anything else. After I workout, it's taking me too long to see what I can eat jumping through all the hoops with my Garmin 305 (look up HR to calories, convert to net, go to MFP, enter)! LOL

    Another Timex user here. I use the Ironman Road Trainer full-size. Never had any trouble with reliability or picking up the heart rate. I'm pretty sure it is showing gross calories so I use a web-based calculator to convert the calories to net since I record net on MFP. This watch is $75 on Amazon.

    When I grow up and make lots of money, my next one will be the Garmin 610...

    Hehe. I'm with you on the Garmin 610. Sharp watch! (Just settled for a used 405 of last week for $80. I convert the avg HR to cals, then to net online. By then, I'M REALLY HUNGRY. LOL
