Subject: Heart Rate Monitor Question When I run on the treadmill at the rec center, I wear my HR chest strap to monitor my intensity. The last two runs I have forgotten my HRM chest strap at home. However, the treadmill dispaly still picks up my HR. It is accurate when compared to previous runs, and RPE. Also, no one else is close enough to be picking up on someone else's chest strap. I also teach spin, and I have noticed that the spin bike display will sporadically pick up on my HR without wearing the chest strap. Is this normal? How does this work? |
