Im using Fenix 5 with the HRM Trim. I see some disconnects during activities, i remove the watch and put it in a static-bike so i can use the kettlebells freely on my wrists, i move at 2-3m from the watch and the heart rate reading is lost almost every time at this distance, is this normal? had no problems with old Polar v800...
