HRM strap for Strength?

Former Member over 6 years ago

Hi,

Is it possible to get the strength app on the watch to use the HRM-Tri strap as opposed to the wrist?

There are the odd times in the gym when I need to take it off whilst doing some exercises where it digs into my wrist and hand but would like to keep HR data.

The watch will always default to using a paired HR strap whilst using an Activity app (such as the Strength Training one), as the HR strap data is superior to wrist HR. So as long as the watch is kept near enough to not to lose signal with the HRM Tri strap you are wearing, all should be good.

And if the watch looses connection to the HRM-Tri, then there's the option to download HR data from the strap after the workout.
