I'm trying out Polar's activity monitor--super simple, no heart rate involved, it just tells you when you're moving, tracks your "worthwhile" activity (a little person icon sits when you're not so active, stands when you're somewhat active, and moves when you're really after it) and naturally I've become a little obsessive with it. Problem is my left arm has to move for it to register. So if I'm on a bike resting my arms in the aero position, the little guy on the watch is sitting down. If I'm lugging my 25+ son up the stairs in my left arm, nada. Makes me want to yell at the watch.
