Hi,

I would appreciate some advice.

I am going to purchase a heart rate monitor in the next week or two.

I want to use it for the following:
Spinning - so cadence would be nice.
Calories - to track what I have burned.
Running - heart rate, anything else they do??
Cycling - mostly to monitor heart rate - I have a cadence meter on my bike.
Heart Rate - for strength training, running, plyometrics, yoga, kenpo, etc.
Hiking - don't know if there is a purpose for having a monitor here??

I look at Polar's site and they have a heart monitor for sitting, standing, running, cycling, fitness, cross training, and I leave the site more confused than when I entered. I really don't want 10 monitors on my wrist

What do you ladies own? Would it do what I have listed above? Anything else I should know??

Thanks!
