Hey everyone!

I am debating between the FT40 or FT7 heart rate monitor does anyone have experience with either and can tell me their opinions??

Thanks :)

    I got the FT7 because I was told it had VO2 max settings. It doesn't.

    After I got over being mad at it and myself for making this mistake I grew to love it. I find it to be highly motivational. Plus I have to work harder now to get the same calorie burn, which I wouldn't have know without using it.

    Hey there. I am currently trying to decide on which HRM to get. I basically have it narrowed down to a Polar FT40 or FT7. Which one did you end up going with? Do you like it? Any feedback would be helpful.
