That’s some really good data tbh

Much better than the app thing on the other one

I may get one at some point

That's probably because your watch hasn't got a wrist sensor?
Avatar
Yeah it doesn’t
1:47
Yeah you'll need HR strap then
1:47
or might be better to just buy entirely new watch if its an old one
1:47
Cus straps are like £70
1:48
HRM 600 is a heart rate monitor with real-time heart rate and HRV data, running dynamics, stand-alone activity recording, and up to 2 months of battery life.
1:48
HRM 200 is a heart rate monitor that delivers real-time heart rate and HRV data, gets up to 1 year of battery life, and has a machine washable strap for easy cleaning.
1:49
You can also get the polar h2 which is good, and should be compatible with your device
1:50
Although discontinued so I think h10 is next cheapes
