Heart Rate Monitor Question

[westcliffemom]

Sorry if this has been asked before, but I can't do a search for some reason! I'm looking for a good, reliable heart rate monitor. I don't know what brand is good, or whether I should have a strapless or strap one. Any ideas?

I recently purchased a Polar F6 model and love it! It has the strap that goes around your chest and wirelessly transmits the info to the watch unit. The strap is really comfortable and I don't even notice that I'm wearing it after I have it on for a few minutes.

I love how the watch stores my information in it (exercise time, max and avg heart rates, etc) and you can even transmit that data to a website for easy tracking.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
