Cycling Heart Rate Monitors

There are numerous kinds and brands of heart rate monitors on the market, including cycling heart rate monitors. One of the top manufacturers of monitors is Polar. You can buy this brand and other brands at fitness supply stores as well as online stores like Amazon. One model to consider is the Polar CS200 Cycling Computer Heart Rate Monitor. Priced at around $139, this particular monitor is not only reasonable in cost but packed with great features. It even comes with a two-year limited manufacturer's warranty.


The Polar CS200 can be mounted on the handlebars of your indoor or outdoor cycle for the ultimate in convenience. You a Polar coded transmitter which prevents crosstalk with other devices as well as a full heart rate monitor. Not only that, but this monitor comes with the Polar Cycling Coach. The Polar Cycling Coach is an Internet based diary and coaching program that can make your workouts even more effective. This monitor also calculates the ETA to your finish line based on how fast you're traveling. You can even store data from your last seven cycling sessions and download it to your computer.

Yet another monitor from Polar is the CS400 Cycling Computer. While it costs a bit more than the CS200, it also comes with more sophisticated features. You can measure inclines both uphill and downhill percentages or grades. The cycling economy and intensity feature lets you track how many calories you're burning on each ride, while wireless measurements track your speed, distance traveled and even your estimated time of arrival. You also get the Polar Pro software that allows you to program the best workout for your body and your preferences.

Of course cycling heart rate monitors are not required for bikers who want to track their heart rate. You can just as easily wear a traditional watch style monitor with chest straps. There are even monitors that are worn around the wrist and gauge heart rate when you place two fingers on the display. No matter what kind of monitor you ultimately choose, you'll find that tracking your heart rate can make a big difference in the efficiency of your exercise sessions. Staying on target ensures you are working your cardiovascular system properly and helps you shed pounds whether you are cycling or doing another form of exercise.
