I found a HRM that works on me!!!!

I gave up finding a heart rate monitor that will work on me after going through every brand at Sports Authority, REI and a high end running store- none would give me a reading. I was at the mall today and saw a ring hrm in the window at Brookstone. It’s not fancy and doesn’t have a lot of features, but it gave an accurate reading! It’s too clunky to wear for weight training but I really only need it on the treadmill and elliptical anyway so I am pleased. And I got a pink one. I like pink :o)

I'm glad you finally found one that gives you a correct reading.

And pink?? How cool is that??

Is it a new form of Mood ring. Pink but turns black if your heart stops?

Frank, if I expire on the elliptical, be sure to ask my husband what color it was, lol.

I only see black on the website. If you want a pink one, I'd be happy to pick it up for ya :o) They also have blue and silver in the store. The guy asked which one I wanted, my kids rolled their eyes (as only preteens can) and said in unison "Pink, duh".

Black?

I figured black was OK for me, but now I'm wondering if putting a black one on would make my heart stop.

I dunno, it it really worth it taking a chance like that??

You know you're wired when...

You always have something close to your heart.

To tell you the truth I never even give it a second thought. While growing up it never stopped me from doing anything and to this day my girlfriend or my kids need to remind me that I have one!
