I think one needs to track how they are doing and if they are not burning enough or burning too much. I've been wanting to get one. Now I know what to look for and the range I should be in for an effective workout. Nice article :) Take care, Jen This would be an excellent purchase!

Heart monitor is an extra expense so what I do is just do my cardio correctly. I visit my doctor regularly too to be sure I'm in shape. I agree with you Todd.

The ones that are on the equipment are typically junk, and are inconsistent at best. Then again, if you're doing your cardio correctly, you don't need one. That's one of the great things about HIIT. It's fast, to the point, and doesn't bother with the myth of the "fat burning zone". HR monitors are a good tool to have in the arsenal.

It keeps you informed of how your heart is doing like your heart rate and its intensity. You are also able to keep track of your heart's activity when doing strenuous exercises. It's like having a personal trainer on your wrist because it counts and displays the calories that you have burned during your work out session. Heart rate monitors are quite important to anyone.

RPE (rate of perceived exertion) is also a great way to measure intensity and matches up nicely to heart rate. Rate how hard you're working on a scale of 0 to 10. A 5 = 50% max heart rate, 6 = 60% max heart rate and so on. Heart rate monitors are a very useful training tool.

I felt that as long as I was increasing my heart rate gradually, then I was burning fat accordingly.
