Ive never used one before, alot of people on here seem to use them?
Do you use the chest strap or watch type variety?
Any opinions on how acurate they are for calories burned??

    Chest strap is most accurate. I have a Polar FT4 and love it.

    Chest strap, definitely! I have the New Balance N4 ($70 from Target and I love it!) Steer clear of the Sportline brand- I had to return mine because it didn't work.
