    I've had two...I had a Garmin watch that died, and I'm SO SAD! and now I have another generic version...but, LOVELOVELOVE them both. I feel naked if I don't have one on during a workout. I definitely like to make sure I'm in the upper range of my heart rate during my workouts! I promise you'll love it too!

    I've had the Polar FT7 for a couple of weeks now and LOVE it. It comes with a wrist watch and a chest strap that is comfortable to wear for cardio as well as strength training. It keeps track of your heart rate, how many calories you've burned, and how long you've been working out. I would definitely recommend this HR monitor!

    I have a cheapo mio Drive wrist monitor. It is just ok. When I working out hard I can't get it to give me a reading sometimes. Today it worked fine, idk.

    I currently use a Polar FT 60 and I can honestly say that before I started using a heart rate monitor I never questioned my calories burned during a session, but after talking with a few people, I realized that my workouts were not as effective as they could have been. It makes a world of difference in the effort and intensity you put forth when working out.
