Re: Cheap Heart rate monitor!

[Guest guest]

I'm still lurking but wanted to chime in about the Reebok HR monitor.

I bought this one a few months ago, at a slightly higher price on

ebay. So far, I'm happy with it, but my HR monitor needs are pretty

low, lol. I usually only use it for cardio, and then usually just my

machines. The watch is pretty large, and it kind of bugs me if I'm

wearing my weighted gloves for a cardio video. Too much stuff on my

hands.

The biggest advantage this one has for me (and the reason I bought it)

is that it is polar compatible. My cardio machines uses polar

wireless, and my old strap was getting pretty worn. This reebok one

works great with my machines, and I can change the battery myself when

the time comes. Might be an option for those of you with polars - use

this strap with your polar watch, maybe? Just a thought.

Hope that helps.

Thank you for the info Sara! I invested in 3 of them. For $20 each, you can't lose in my eyes. I will either use them for training to watch clients heart rate (would be nice to not have to share as often), or give 2 of them away w/ training packages maybe, and give one to my mom.
