Do you love your heart rate monitor? (I do!)

by workoutmommy on July 12, 2012

Many, many years ago I bought a Polar heart rate monitor.  It was awesome and I loved it to death.  Literally.   My old dinosaur monitor kicked the bucket a few weeks ago so I went to Polar to check out the new models and wow…times have changed!

Now you can get every bell and whistle possible, including GPS tracking!  I did not know this, did you?

I ended up deciding on the Polar FT7 , which I was a little hesitant about because it looked kind of ‘big’ in the picture.   (just to clarify though, my old monitor was huge. and clunky. and obvious.)  I was hoping for something smaller and the FT7 is perfect!   It packs a ton of features  in a small little package.   :)

Now it’s time to put it to the test and burn some calories!


Do you use a heart rate monitor?  If so, which one do you love?

Disclosure: The awesome people at Polar sent me an FT7 with no obligation to review or even talk about.  I am yapping about how great it is because I love it and Polar.   Their products are awesome as is their customer service.   I was not paid for this post, this is my honest opinion! :)

i have a polar f11 and i LOVE it. my strap wore out after a couple of years and needed to be replaced but that is easy and inexpensive. the only think i don’t like about it is that you can’t weblink – wirelessly transfer your workout data – with a mac computer :( (((

can you do that with the newer updated versions??

I have the same HRM from Polar and LOVE it. Absolutely LOVE it! I wear it all the time and my friends are amazed at how accurate I can get for my calorie burn and other counts. In fact several have bought one too.
