Honest question for the readers, non readers and anyone else who looks at the internet. My woman and I are looking into purchasing a fitness/ heart rate monitor and rather than me telling you about it later, I’m asking the people for their input. Honestly, I like them all but am trying to figure out which one is right for us. We both exercise a decent amount, play beer league sports and remain pretty active. I’m probably one of the worst eaters on the planet and would eat pizza every meal of every day if I knew it wouldn’t make a million pounds, so I’ve got that working against me. I’m looking for something that is going to help me monitor my daily activities. I don’t normally just go to the gym and work out and that’s that. Typically it’s some combination of coaching soccer, playing multiple sports, p90x mixed with a run here and there, so properly monitoring all of that reliably is most important.
All of them do similar things but reviews are varied. I have an IPhone so the mobile situation shouldn’t be an issue. What do the people think? Are their other products I should be looking into? My boy just started testing this product, so perhaps that could make the cut. Bottom line is I’m not looking to hook up a heart monitor to myself every day, I’d like to keep it around $150 and I want it to be reliable.
Thoughts? Early leader in the clubhouse is the UP, but I’m open to suggestions.
