and can't wait to see the new reviews. 

First off, Chiva Som is in a class by itself.  I have been there 4 times over the past few years and I have enjoyed each time.  The place has magic attached to it.  The grounds are simply amazing and the spa services are second to none in the world.  You really feel like you are being pampered at Chiva Som Fitness Retreat.  It is not just a fitness resort but also perhaps the most relaxing spa I have ever been to. 
 
The rooms are all great but I have always upgraded to an ocean view one bedroom.  The costs of this place is higher than most at near 1k USD per night but if that is in your budget, a week or a month here and you will come out feeling refreshed and invigorated. 
 
They don't have a wide variety of hard core classes but they do offer personal training if you want to go more hard core.  The swimming pool is amazing and the views from all over the resort are great.  The place is a little bit of Heaven on Earth.

I have not posted my review of Chiva Som yet as I am going there again in 2 weeks and want the review to be as accurate as possible.  This place is amazing.  Has anyone else been there?

I am loving my Polar Loop. It is simply great.  It keeps track of my movements and activity throughout the day.  Together with the new Polar Heart Rate monitor, it also calculates my calories burned during work outs.  The Loop is very comfortable to wear and keeps track of sleeping time, sitting time, standing time, moving time and running time.  It does a really great job at all of these. 
 
The flow is water resistant as well and I have worn mine in the pool and shower each day.  I take it off to charge and to calibrate with the Polar Flow site once per day for about 10 min.  It charges fast and lasts a long time.
 
There is a great video on the Polar website that you should look at.
 
The cost was 99.00 on Amazon and IMHO, well worth every penny.   I love Polar and the fact it works so well with all the Life Fitness equipment is an added bonus.
 
I am a Mac guy and this syncs great with my Phone app and my Apple computer. 
 
I have tried other fitness readers and watches over the years. But, this is by far the best I have used!

Below is a photo from my workout today on the Elliptical.  It kept up with all my heart rate info and immediately uploaded to my Polar account.
