Anyone Upgraded From One To Charge HR?
How does the charge HR compare on burn rates? Are you finding it as accurate? Was it worth the upgrade? Do you pick up many surplus steps for hand movements? Any tips would be most welcome to help me decide whether to upgrade. Thanks

How Much HAVEN'T You Eaten? :-)
In an idle moment yesterday I worked out that I've been restricting my calories for 100 days now (since 1 March) at the rate of 1000 calories per day so I have not eaten an incredible 100,000 calories so far which would equate to: 400 Chocolate Bars or 571 Packets of Crisps (Chips) or 326 Slices of Pizza etc. (all taken…

Crane Heart Rate Monitor (Aldi)
Does anyone have any experience of these please? I bought one from Aldi recently and it seems to work really well for heart rate accuracy (1 or 2 bpm away from what the grip sensors give me on the Precor machines at the gym) and the chest band keeps a good transmission with the machine, as long as nobody else wearing one…

HRM For Swimming & Aqua Aerobics?
...But Also Compatible With Precor Cardio Machines If Possible? I've been doing a bit of research into this and getting very mixed reviews about whether HRMs will transmit through water or not and thought I'd ask members here as end-users! I mainly swim breaststroke and some backstroke and take 2 aqua aerobics classes a…

Which Heart Rate Monitor Is Best For My Needs? (UK)
Hi I swim and do aqua aerobics mostly but also use the treadmill in the gym and am starting to use the elliptical which causes my heart rate to shoot up pretty quickly so I'm thinking of getting a HRM to better monitor my safe zones but also to give me a more accurate calorie count for my swimming and aqua aerobics because…
