Timex T5J031 Unisex Digital Fitness Heart Rate Monitor Watch Reviews

I had purchased a strapless heart monitor just a week or so before I bought this Timex T5J031. Timex T5J031 was almost useless in monitoring my heart rate, however, since it seemed to rarely give readings when asked. So I decided to upgrade to this Timex. I am so glad I did. Since my first monitor was not that helpful, I was immediately happy with this new one. I can enter specific information about my body (weight, age, resting heart rate, maximum heart rate) easily, and because Timex T5J031 has that information, Timex T5J031 can come up with accurate readings of how many calories I burn. Plus, Timex T5J031 seems to stand up well to daily use. I recommend this product to anyone who is serious about exercising and monitoring their heart rate.
