Heart rate monitor?

by on August 30, 2008

I'm looking for a heart rate monitor that I'm not sure exists. I want a strapless model that continulously measures my heart rate (I'm not sure if this can even be achieved) that has a pedometer, calories burned and can be worn as a watch. I could deal with it not measuring my heart rate continulously if it gave me an accurate calorie count, but I don't want to wear a strap.

Suunto has some very interesting wrist computers, but I don't know they include a pedometer. Do you want distance walked, or steps taken ?

You can get a foot pod, and others with foot pod and GPS, for some Suunto models that signals the distance walked or run. But I think they all use a chest strap. It also will give agood approximation of calories. It does that by taking input of your age, height, and weight.

I have it fix on my treadmill. I saw a lot of this machine sold at fitness centres & shops.

I have a heart monitor that I wear that fits around your abdomen and you wear a watch that keeps up with your heart beat, how much time you have exercised, etc. There are different levels of monitors, just how much you are willing to spend is the question. You can look at Wal-Mart or at any sports store, like Academy. Google heart monitors and you will find a ton on the web in your price range. Good luck!
