We stopped keeping a diary at 12 years old--when our sister caught us reading it and took it back. But the people at Polar heart-rate monitors have come up with the best reason yet to confide your personal info to an inanimate object: the Polar F11. Not only does it provide accurate heart-rate readings in a fashionable watch and adjustable transmitter belt, it can actually design for you a personalized cardio program and log your progress in its special "diary" feature.

Just enter your fitness goal and how much time you have to work out, and the F11 will tell you exactly when, how often, and how hard you need to work to achieve it. Wear it just once, and it will know your body better than you do. $160 @ polarusa.com
