Polar FT60 Heart Rate Monitor Very Happy!

Polar FT60 Heart Rate Monitor Very Happy!
I spent a fair amount of time researching which HRM to buy. Getting sold on a Polar was pretty easy, but then you have to figure out which Polar.
I didn't care about running which put me into the FT category. I do like "toys" and I do like data, so I settled on the FT60 and I'm glad I did.
Setup was easy, just answer the questions. Using it is also easy. It'll start/pause/stop and you can review your workout on the screen. I also like how it calculates a program for me based on my goal and I can see where I am relative to that goal. When I meet or exceed the goal for the week it even displays a trophy on the screen (cute).
I upload my data to Polar's website which has been a breeze and it's free.
Unlike some of the other Polar models, you can replace the battery in the HRM and the transmitter yourself on this model. A big plus in my opinion.

Polar FT60 Heart Rate Monitor Fantastic Workout Tool.
My first heart rate monitor and well worth the money. It is comfortable, not unsightly, packed with features and appears to take a decent amount of abuse. The strap is easy to wash and fits well around all sizes. The weight loss program is simple but great at making you realize just how hard you actually need to work out. (I would guess that without a heart rate monitor most people don't realize how they are not working in their zones at all) with diet and this little tool I have so far lost about 20lbs. Display was easy to read, and while intimidating, it is not complex despite all it can do. The weight graph is fantastic!
