I'm just recovering from and injury and I'm looking to get a heart rate monitor to step up my training. But I know barely anything about them. Should I go for one that does everything, including my speed, cadence, ect? Or just simply for heart rate? I have a simple computer on my bike already, but again, simple, does little other then distance, and speed.
I've pretty much already made up my mind about getting one that uses a chest strap, not just the watch technology, that's shaky I think. I haven't heard good things about it. I'm sure with enough mulah though, it'd be fine.
So I need opinions on if cadence is a must,
Plus if you think I should get one that allows me to connect to any kind of scheduling program.... also what brand would you recommend, I know polar is good, but I'd like more options. I only know polar and cateye really.
Anyway, as many opinions as possible would be fine with me
