What brand/type of HRM to you own? What is a good quality, mid-priced model?

    Hi Becks,

    I own a Polar FT7, though I think you would be fine with the FT4. On ebay they are quite cheap for what you get.

    Cheers

    I own a polar f4 and a bowflex something or another. Bowflex was more expensive and i hate it. The polar f4 does exactly what I want it to do- track how long my work out was, keep data stored, give me calories burned. Polar has others that have more doodads, but i got the cheapest one (it was 99 i think, which is a decent price for a really good heart rate monitor). You can get them for cheaper, but its worth the investment :)

    I own a Bowflex Precision XT... It seems to be working pretty well so far but this is the only one I've ever owned so I have nothing to compare to. But I did get a sweet deal on it. I found it at Big 5 sporting goods on sale for $39.99 (reg price: $129.99) so I think that was a great price. Keeps track of cal/ fat/ time and all kinds of other stuff.
