Nice blog, just recently found it. Regarding the low HR in similar excersises it also has to do with your body getting use to them. So it is important to vary the training every few weeks, so your muscles get better training. This happens easily when you do spinning with HR monitors, after some weeks its easy to see how diffult it gets to go up to a 80%. I also combine now weight training and small cardio with high and low intervals, and it does the trick. I think the garmin is still to big, but its nice that you can have a ghost runner, to compete with. tnss last blog post..¿El dinero o la Felicidad?

It is rather big. You couldn’t wear it as a normal watch but having said that it is fine when I’m running. It’s never bothered me.

How do you like the Garmin 305? The pictures of it look really huge - is it manageable? John's Weight Loss Blogs last blog post..Weight Loss Blogger Interview - Tony Posnanski

I experimented with the HR alarm on my 301 when I first got it, but the beeping drove me nuts (orienteering isn’t a “consistent” sport). Now I just laugh when people run past with their wrists bleeping away – I know when they’re working too hard, or not hard enough.

I can look at my wrist easily enough – I’ve got pretty good at judging heartrate now.

Sounds good, I've really tried to just worry about my fitness lately as well and not put soo much focus on the weight. Jessicas last blog post..My Top 55 Lean-Body Foods to Build Muscle and Lose Body Fat

If you had to reccommend a polar or a garmin, which would be your pick. Love the blog by the way. melissas last blog post..HMC:FAQ

Huh... Well done. Admittedly, I've never been into the heart rate stuff. And... maybe not coincidentally, my resting HR isn't low. Hmmm... Eric Gervases last blog post..100 Pushups... Sort Of
