Polar RS100 Heart Rate Monitor OK!

Polar RS100 Heart Rate Monitor OK!
This is my first heart rate monitor, which I use for running and cycling. It is pretty simple to use, fits great, and all components are hand washable. In addition to average heart rate, max and min, it tells you how many calories you've burned, and the percent of those calories from fat. You can also track your performance on laps, such as when you're doing intervals or speed work, but I haven't yet mastered that function.

What this HRM lacks: A GPS to track distance and pace (I use the RunKeeper app on my mobile phone to do that), and the capability to transmit your workout data wirelessly to your computer. I enter that info manually into a training diary that I created on the Polar website. If that seems too tedious, you might want to spring for a more expensive model.

Polar RS100 Heart Rate Monitor Came fast, works great.
I couldn't believe that ordering a product from Sweden on Amazon would cost 500 SEK less than in the stores here and on top of that be delivered in one day.

Thanks a million for great service for a great product.
