Is a heart rate monitor effective for losing weight?
Well Brooke M, I can tell you from experience that a heart rate monitor is a great tool for monitoring your exercise when you are trying to lose weight. I personally lost 48 pounds in 7 months and I was able to get off prescription meds for high blood pressure and cholesterol, acid reflux and mild asthma.
The formula is a simple one: eat right and exercise regularly. Set fitness and weight loss goals and track your weight on a scale and calories burned using your heart monitor. Assuming your are eating right, then you will be able to find what weekly calorie burn rate you need to achieve to your goals. It really is just simple math.
Some heart rate monitors are better than others. I would highly recommend the chest strap versions as they appear to be the most accurate. Depending on the type of exercise you plan on doing, you have lots of options.
If you have further questions I am happy to discuss more with you, simply ask another question using “heart rate monitor” in the question because that is how I came across your question … I have web alerts on the subject.
