What brand of heart rate monitor does everyone suggest I get? I want one that is fairly accurate with an arm strap. Thanks in advance!!:smile:

    Hiya:

    I just bought a Polar F4 and it is magic! I got it in red for fun and it does all the things I need for the moment. I show the rate as % of maximum and found it very easy to setup.

    Hope that helps!

    Oh, another thing:

    It only has a chest strap and I noticed that you wanted an arm strap. I find that the chest strap is absolutely no bother - stays in place and everything although I usually wear it under a bra top that is quite fitted.

    I got it on sale for $80 CDN in the boxing day sales but it is regularly $107 CDN.
