I have a garmin forerunner and several chest straps. The numbers seem to be identical, enough to give me plenty of confidence in my wrist measurements. It's funny, the chest strap has given me errors or just stopped reading for a few minutes. That being said, I'm not arguing that the chest strap isn't the best device but from my anecdotal experience, I have no worries about the accuracy of the wrist measurements.
I have had the same experience. I have used both garmin forerunner wrist sensor and tikr chest strap at the same time, both for running and cycling for over a year and I've seen no significant differences. I dislike wearing the chest strap so I've discarded the chest strap and now only rely on the wrist sensor. Also, I don't do heart rate focused training and so it has little value to me anyway.
@@lewissypher2595 personally dont care about heart rate during HIIT workouts, i understand its important to know how high you get, but i always just push all the way in HIIT workouts, whereas normal runs and slower days where i wanna work on my aerobic ability, i wanna have an accurate measurement then to know if i worked too hard or too easy, as it is easy to overdo the easy run or underdo the medium run.
Hi coach. How accurate would the modern sport watches be compared today in 2023 to the time the video was released? I understand that these devices might never be as good as a chest strap but how accurate are these new devices?
I use a polar H9, but to get that to work well, I SOAK the strap in water prior to running, light surface wetting doesn't work reliably. Before I started doing this my chest strap would throw bad data from time to time.. now it NEVER gives me ANY bad data. Writst HR wise.. for me my FR235 optical HR monitor is just a toy, it's SO bad. I go with Polar HR straps as they are the ones used in the scientific studies, they've been prooved to be 99.7% or better correlation with top end medical ECG devices.
Hi, can anyone help? I have problems with tachycardia and few watches only can detect a sudden increase in heart rate from 80 to 200 bpm, apple watch is ok, but I haven't apple ,so only android phone and tried versa 3, garmin venu 2 and both go crazy during my attack, any idea?
So from an intensity-tracking perspective then, power meter surely trumps HR due to the significant reduction in lag? Should we not move away from HR and rather look at power?
May I suggest HR response is the bodies actual response to exertion. Two seperate tracking tools equally valuable. Power however is irrelevant of HR. I Know ya say WHAAAT?? Sure you can correlate the two but on an "off day" HR is the more true metric of the days exertion. Couple different ways of looking at the two. Personally I regard my HR as the go to measure, as maybe holding 220 watts on seperate occasions yields different HR's. Good point on the Intensity tracking. One could simply add 10-20 seconds to an interval since the bodies response is ultimalty what we are after in physiological training not so much a # on a screen . "Training response" begins with a nudge on demands (HR), not the instant we see the prelude up to ? Different perspective I know but jus thrown it out there.
The question is how can i calculate the power on every beat ? is that posible ? are 140 BPM the same effort for a fit person or a non fit person for a big person or a small one ? what i whould like to know if is the power on every beat matter too much to consider BPM a marker for progresion. if i put like goal go 1h cardio every die at 140 BPM at the end of a year thoser 140 BPM will be the same 140 BPM and i will have to go 150BPM to improve or they will be 140 stronger BPM and that is the improvement ?

Try HIIT in gym. Wrist HRN is shite. See above

Andrew, confirm your battery in the HRM is secure and then use an EKG electrode Gel every time, especially if you have chest hair

What would you recommend for wearing for a 24/7 heart monitoring?
Thanks for a great video
Very nice, useful and incredibly good informing video. Congrats, guys!
Our pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.

My HR chest strap showed wired data spinning between 140 and 112 within a few seconds. I have to try soaking, but now in winter it would be very cold

useful video, with lots of sense and logic, thanks for sharing 👍🏽

This video still tells you nothing about which brand is the best to buy.
