Best Heart Rate Monitors for Walking/Jogging

pros: compact design, easy to use cons: unreliable best uses: walking describe yourself: frequent exerciser bottom line: not recommended as a personal trainer, i bought this

we both tried it while running, walking, biking and sitting.

lastly, if you walk with someone who also has one these monitors there will be interference from the other person's transmitter unit.

but for the present, listening to music, watching tv, and occasionally walking the cat are beginning to look like preferable alternatives.

just wish it had a backlight since it is often dark when i am walking.

if i use it more often, it's totally useless, cos it would say 32% when i'm obviously panting and working at around 85%, or even say 120% when i'm just walking around the gym.

while running it will start out giving an accurate reading, then start jumping around, giving me an impossibly high (151 at a slow jog) or low reading (71 while running uphill) or it will jump from

now i can finally tell if i'm on track with my walking routine.

i wanted a quick way to measure my heart rate while walking for exercise - this does the job well.

i wear it when i'm walking to remind me to keep up the pace.

this product was dificult to get a heart rate reading on unless you are walking, would not give a heart rate even at low running speeds.

that limits your exercise too running or walking.
