Just wanted to monitor my heart rate...perfect!
I just recently got into exercise as a senior citizen. I read the book Younger Next Year by Chris Crowley and Henry Lodge. Chris insisted that a heart rate monitor is necessary. I tried a cheap wrist model, but it was inaccurate. So, I wanted one on a chest strap, because I think they are more accurate, and I just wanted to see what my heart rate was by looking at my wrist. Other models seems to want to interface with your phone, but I don't want to carry my phone when I'm exercising or have to look at it to see what my heart rate is. Or you can interface to a smart watch, but I don't want a smart watch. Or you could buy an expensive wrist unit that would interface to your phone, the gym equipment, track your exercise, keep a spreadsheet, and run your microwave at home. Um. I just wanted to see my heart rate.This model was perfect for my needs. The chest strap is comfortable. It was easy to set up the watch. The watch isn't particularly stylish, but it's got huge numbers and it's easy to use and that's what I wanted. I checked the accuracy of the heart rate against medical equipment and it is accurate. Although I wasn't interested in this, it somehow automatically paired with the treadmill at the gym so the treadmill shows my heart rate. Huh. I am completely satisfied with this unit. It does exactly what I wanted it to do.I have read reviews that the batteries are hard to change. I don't have experience with that yet, but I'll cross that bridge when I get to it....next year....when I'm a year younger. ;-)Ver másVer menos
