I recently got a new "World Cycling" cataloge and noticed the use of a HRM into the clothing you wear.  I would like to involve a HRM into my training but hate wearing the strap monitor b/c it always falls down. 

I was wondering if anyone has tried this out yet and if they have any success.

seriously genius idea.  That chest strap is the bane of my workout.

jtaddei - 2009-07-20 3:40 PM seriously genius idea.  .

Thats what I thought and also thought the price was reasonable if it would have my train better/more efficiently.

Uuummmmm, where does it get inserted? Looks like they might be taking a femoral pulse...Innocent

Heh, one area where women come out ahead - they've got 'em in sports bras. We're so used to wearing something right there, doesn't bother us (well, doesn't bother any of the small handful of women I've talked to, anyway).

The picture in the cataloge shows it cliping into the back.  Figure while your riding it might not get a great pulse (contact with the skin) if its not SUPER SUPER tight.

Neat idea and much cheaper then the world cycling option.  Thanks.
