Looking to buy one, curious to see how much I burn at work. :indifferent:
Can anyone recommend a good brand or an accurate one they've had success with? :indifferent:

    I've heard Polar was a good one, how much did yours cost?

    I did a lot of research on them before I bought mine. Polar seems to be the clear winner - but it's a little more expensive. If you are going to use it religously, it's worth the $$. FT4 and FT7 are popular and got great reviews!

    I have the New Balance N4 - I got it at Target for $69. Some of the best $$ I ever spent! :)

    I bought mine from target for about 70, it's new balance they have them in white and black watches to chose from, slender fit, works good.

    I would recommend a polar heart rate monitor, they are the best!! They are a little pricey but worth every penny!! Check coupon mountain to see if there are any coupons you could use!!:smile:

    I have a Timex. Works great. I've been using it for about 6 weeks. Easy to use. I like it.

    I have a Bowflex one that I got off of Ebay, has a transmitter chest strap and everything. Works super awesome!

    I got mine at Target for $109 plus tax...it was over priced of course.

    I saw it on heartratemonitorusa for like $60?

    Oh yeah and use POLAR as a discount code at checkout.

    I have this as well, and I'm loving it :) Haven't seen too many people with it, but I know a friend of mine has one and she's had great success with it.

    I use it only for cardio, though, because sometimes it does do funky things like if you're leaning down or sitting down. Might just be me, I'm very narrow around the ribs and I had to tie a few knots in the chest strap to make it fit.
