HRM-Pro, Tri, and Swim will sometimes corrupt activity fit files

Update the HRM firmware How Do I Update the HRM-Pro Software Using the Garmin Connect App?
Note that HR data download after the activity is usually for swimming or when for some reason you could not wear your watch during an activity.
During the HRM-Pro download process keep the strap and watch in close proximity
If issues persist even after the firmware update, contact Garmin Support
