Heart Rate Monitor
So today in my fitness class we tested our sigma onyx easy heart rate monitors in class. It was very interesting trying to switch the language from German to English. I think it is a very nice heart rate monitor for only 40 dollars! I am a little disappointed that it is a little on the bigger size but it is nice that the print is big enough to read! I also like all of the different options we can see when we are in training mode! I agree it is basically idiot proof, but it does get annoying pressing all of those buttons repeatedly. At least I learned how to turn the beeping noise off! Surprisingly the chest strap is reasonably comfortable!

I just received my heart rate monitor as well and I am not sure what to think. I almost feel as they just get in the way when you are trying to workout because they are so bulky on your wrist, but then I think they are helpful. I am having a hard time keeping it in my target heart rate zone. It seems like when I go lift, I have to do a lighter weight very slowly and control my breathing to keep it in my zone. I like what the HRM has to offer, but it can be a pain in some situations.
