Garmin HRM-Pro Plus In-Depth Review // Garmin’s Best Heart Rate Monitor Yet

  1. I did 121 hours of running with my HRM-Pro (not Plus) over 13 months until it reported "battery low". It took 5 minutes to change the battery. If you have HRM-Pro, don't upgrade it to Plus.

  2. Great review – while offline from your phone and watch (and without starting the activity on your watch first), can you connect the strap to your Peloton bike, then upload the activity to Garmin Connect afterwards? And if so, will it upload as a spinning activity with all the details or will it just be an activity with heart rate data etc?

  3. Excuse me, I have a question. I am looking at this strap for my hiit and weight training workouts. In which option should I put the leash when starting each type of training?

  4. Just ordered one as I'm finding it really difficult to get the watch to pick up my heart rate so my question is this…. Can I turn off the watch heart rate monitor and have the strap show real time heart rate on the watch?

  5. A list of compatible Garmin watches and cycling computers would be helpful, but good review

  6. Does this work with indoor walking or running? say for instance running on running-band without bluetooth?

  7. In the Garmin lineup. What would be the first watch to use all those features?

  8. I am just looking for a way to measure heart rate and calories burnt. Would I be able to pull that off with this or do I need the Wrist watch as well?

  9. Can it be paired with Zwift and used for running? Does it transmit speed to Zwift?

  10. How long did you run with the strap outside to get those results for pace/distance? DC Rainmaker says he did it for a few weeks to get the results that are close to Stryd. I've just done about two hours, and the pace and distance still seem pretty off running on an indoor track. The lane 1 of the indoor track should be 12 laps for one mile, but I just got .97 after 12 laps in lane 4, not to mention the pace read on my watch seemed really off as well the whole time. The results after showed more similar to what the pace likely was, but still seemed a little off. The pace was a tad faster than I have done on my outdoor runs though as it was cadence training while my outdoor runs were all longer distances, even though I tried to do some quicker paces at the end of the runs. How does it bucket these paces? Do I need to run intervals at exact paces to get the strap to track? Really love the idea of using this instead of buying a Stryd pod, but I'm just trying to get it to match up as closely as possible.

    Thank you so much for the review! It's appreciated!
