Hi there guys just want to know of a good heart rate monitor and your advice before I buy.

I have bought a cheaper one in the past with the strap that sits under the bust area although I find that gets a little annoying once I am working out. Do any of you know of any strapless ones.

Thanks for the advice in advance!!

    Honestly you will just be wasting your money buying a strapless one. The Polar HRM's have very soft straps you can barely notice them.

    All the better ones have a strap, and are more accurate. I have a Polar FT4. I think with the strapless ones you have to touch them to get a readout - after reviewing several on the internet I bought the FT4 and don't feel the strap...

    Thanks guys...

    I dont want one that I have to touch I am looking for a continuous one. The only one I found on the net like that was the ePulse2.. sold in the USA and Im in Australia so just wanted to know if it was worth it before I buy. Apparently its goes around your forearm therfore giving a continuous reading.
