HRM Advice Please

[Saint]

I need to buy an HRM for use both on my bike and at the gym in the future. Not inteested in looking
at stuff such as cadence but rather to help me lose weight and gain fitness. One which shows
calories, time on zones etc.

I have looked at the specs and seen a few which do so but would like some tips from peple who
actually use them. Not bothered whether its a Polar or Cardiosport etc.

All help appreciated.

PS: The Cardiosport Profile looks like a good bet - any comments?

the bike functions but I have a computer to do that. It does calories and zones and recovery, all
the main things.

Polar does it for me too (S710). Just choose the one that has the functions you need, including
downloading data to your PC if that's what rocks ya boat. It rocks mine
