The CardioSport GT2 heart rate monitor is one piece of equipment that offers "good value", a recent product review has stated.

According to Men"s Fitness magazine, the product "offers plenty of features".

The heart rate monitor has "five heart-rate zones and can show your pulse in beats per minute or as a percentage of an individual"s maximum heart rate, the magazine states.

The CardioSport GT2 shows how hard the heart is working during exercise and also allows the user to set a "target zone" during exercise, the manufacturer claims. Such a feature acts like "cruise control on a car".

Also, the heart rate monitor from CardioSport can show the number of calories being used, the maximum heart rate reached and the average pulse.

CardioSport"s GT range of heart rate monitors has four models and the company claims its GT5 model can act like a personal trainer and has one of the "most extensive" heart rate recording memories of any such product.
