Recommandation for a HR monitor
I had recovered from open-heart surgery last year & want to do biking to build up some strength. Have read about people using HR monitor for cycling & jogging. Would appreciate any info on a good HR monitor that you would use. Also how do you use one for proper exercising? Thanks.

Bypass here and the heart monitor gave me confidence in getting back to riding. I did use one before and Nothing changed once I got fit again.
Two ways of looking at the quality- Get a basic one that has limit alarms and shows your heart rate or get one that sings while its dancing. With my affinity with nothing electronic- I use just the basic functions on my Good one- Polar CS300.
