Missing the gym for about 2 weeks now (due to busy schedule) inspires me to write about gadgets and fitness in a regular basis (haven’t you noticed? hehe) ..

I was first introduced with heart rate monitors when me and my fitness coach were discussing about number of calories burnt for every physical activity. She told me i can get a quiet accurate value when i try polar heart rate monitor (she’s wearing one then).

What’s an HRM
If you’re very new to the concept of heart rate, you might be wondering WHAT’S AN HRM (Heart Rate Monitor). It consists of a watch worn on your wrist, and a transmitter that you comfortably wear against your skin and around your chest. The transmitter picks up the signals of your heart, and sends them wirelessly to the watch you wear on your wrist. It’s that simple. No wires, no taking your pulse and doing a multiplication equation. Just look at your wrist and it’s there. AND THE KEY, IT’S DISPLAYED CONTINUOUSLY. The continuous display is what makes it effective. It’s there guiding you during your whole workout.

The Polar F11 is an exerciser’s dream come true. A revolutionary heart rate monitor that creates a workout program to tell you how much, how hard and how long to exercise to reach your goals. It has a vast of fitness applications installed to help you track your improvements, your fitness level, the number of calories/fat you burn and the motivation that you need to achieve your fitness goal. Aside from this super high tech features, it is created with a stylish and fashionable look that you really gonna flaunt.
