Has anyone tried this workout video? How about results? I am a fan of Jillian, and I would like to try it; I am just not sure how it compares to 30DS and Ripped in 30 (if we don't count the fact that Shed & Shred is longer). What do you think - is it worth buying? Thanks in advance!

Thoughts on Polar FT7
Hi! I am starting to think about purchasing a heart rate monitor, and from the various reviews I have read, Polar Ft7 seems like the best option.
