HRM recs for indoor cardio?
I'm looking for any recommendations for a heart rate monitor for indoor cardio workouts. I finished P90X and am in my 3rd week of Insanity and would like to monitor my heart rate. Most recs I see on this board are for running - maybe I would use the same, but don't need the distance tracking/GPS features. Chest strap style would be best from what I've read.
Looking at Polar possibly FT4, FT6, FT7? Or maybe a Garmin, Bowflex, Timex? There are so many. I'd like to keep it under $100.
TIA!

Re: HRM recs for indoor cardio?
Thanks. I guess now trying to decide between FT4 and FT7 - they're both close to the same price on Amazon:
FT4 $70.75 http://www.amazon.com/Polar-FT4F-Heart-Monitor-Watch/dp/B0031ZK84E
FT7 $82.42 http://www.amazon.com/Polar-FT7-Heart-Rate-Monitor/dp/B0031ZI88M/ref=pd_sbs_sg_1
Looks like the FT4 plus data transfer and 99 v 10 training recording files.

I have this one.it doesn't calculate calories. just activity time and average HR. it does talk to the machines at my gym, so I don't have to wear the watch if I'm on the TM or something. it suits my purposes.
