Cardiosport Contour Lite Transmitter with Strap

Advantages: See how you're doing with a reliable, neat piece of kit
Disadvantages: Sometimes gets confused, fiddly to start with

...set any store in it or not is, obviously, up to you. If nothing else you could compare your results for the test month-on-month. The OwnZone Advanced feature will help you set those heart rate limits for training I talked about earlier. The watch listens to your heart as your exercise intensity increases, then sets limits accordingly. This is useful as on a day-to-day basis your abilities change. On a hot and humid day you won't be able to work as hard as on a cool, dry day, for example. Perhaps most usefully, the M51 can be set to allow two users to store separate sets of information with personal settings on the watch. Useful if you and a friend take it in turns to use it, perhaps.

...remains warm because it has the smooth skin panels which eliminate wind chill but also because it has a "new Tech Neck closure system" and rolled wrists and ankles which all help to minimise flushing. Along with blindstitched seams with flexible G-Flex tape added to stress areas whilst maintaining suit flexibility and warmth. The zip also has twin flaps both for comfort and warmth, and I have never had a problem with flushing through the zip. ::: Design ::: This suit is a steamer, that is one with the zip on the back. THis is advantageous to surfers as it means that when they are lying on the board they are not lying on the zip which would be uncomfortable. Divers generally prefer to have the zip on the front as they have to carry tanks on the back which would be uncomfortable. The Contour Steamer is designed specifically for spring... Read review
