I'm thinking of getting a heart rate monitor for the HIIT class that I've been doing for the past month. Anyone using a heart rate monitor? Which one? Would you recommend it?

Polar FT4 and FT7 are highly recommended around these parts.
They come with a chest strap and you can input variables so it is more accurate.0 -

It is waterproof up to a certain depth, but I've been told to refrain from pushing any buttons while underwater, tho0 -

I've got the Polar FT4 and I'm very happy with it so far. Easy to use.0

I agree with this. I have a Polar FS2C and my husband has the FT4 and they are both excellent.0 -

I have a polar F4 and have worn mine in a pool and also worn it when I did a mud run. It got very muddy and it's like a timex. Takes a licking and still keeps on ticking. I just recently had the battery replaced and had it in the pool and it is still waterproof.0 -
Thanks all. Am definitely going to look at getting a Polar FT4 or FT7 based on your comments.0
