Fitness Heart Rate Monitor

Fitness Heart Rate Monitor

A fitness heart rate monitor is for someone who is training to acquire and maintain general physical fitness in a gym or similar environment. For the purpose of drawing up a list of fitness HRMs, those specifically intended for running, cycling etc will be excluded, unless they happen also to be very suitable for general training.

Here is a list of the fitness heart rate monitors that have been featured on this web site. It is not an exhaustive list.
