With such a topic so broad we truly try to cover the basics from all angles in this group. Nothing too big or too small. Nutrition is as significant if not more as exercise is to reaching your goals so learn all you can.

I've seen body fat analyzers which are waaaay cheaper than that. All i need is a simple heart rate monitor which costs around £15 and under. is this possible to get? or will i have 2 buy one of those expensive one/s

Shipping was around $10 though because it came from overseas. I've found that it's a real pain in the butt to try to run and hold my finger on the little sensor thingy steady enough to get an accurate reading. Polar has ones that actually have wireless chest leades (like cardiac monitors) but they are around $150 and up for a decent one. Maybe santa clause..... Anyway, try ebay. Just type in heart rate monitor.
