Heart Rate Monitor

 

 

Overview

HRM-Dual This premium heart rate strap transmits real-time heart rate data over ANT+ connectivity and Bluetooth Low Energy technology, giving you more options to train indoors, outdoors or even online. HRM-Dual features a soft strap that is comfortable and adjustable. Simply remove the heart rate module, and it’s washable, too.

HRM-Fit Purpose-built for women, HRM-Fit is the heart rate monitor you need to capture the important metrics - all with a comfortable clip-on design. The clip-on design easily and comfortably attaches to medium- and high-support sports bras. So move freely and sweat it out - HRM-Fit is with you all the way.

HRM-Pro Plus No, it’s not just a heart rate monitor. Running dynamics also help you improve your form. Whether you’re training indoors or out, the HRM-Pro Plus heart rate strap provides the accurate data you need to push limits and reach goals. HRM-Pro Plus transmits real-time heart rate data to compatible devices, equipment and apps. Connect to your compatible Garmin smartwatch, and get pace and distance data for your indoor runs. Not wearing your watch? HRM-Pro Plus captures steps, calories burned, intensity minutes and more. And a tool-free door makes changing the battery easier than ever.

HRM-Pro In addition to heart rate, HRM-Pro captures running dynamics that can help you improve your form. That includes metrics such as vertical oscillation, ground contact time, stride length, vertical ratio and more. The device stores heart rate data during swimming or other activities while your watch is out of range, then sends that data to your watch once the activity is finished. It will also store steps, calories and intensity minutes, then sync them to your watch as well.

HRM-Run HRM-Run provides 6 running dynamics metrics: Cadence, Vertical Oscillation, Ground Contact Time, Ground Contact Time Balance, Stride Strength, and Vertical Ratio. This real-time data can help athletes take their performance to the next level by showing them where they can improve their running form.

HRM-Tri Heart Rate Data in 3 Disciplines: Specifically designed for triathletes, Garmin's smallest and lightest heart rate monitor stores heart rate data when underwater, then forwards it to your compatible Garmin device at the end of your swim. When running, the HRM-Tri allows your paired device to report 6 running dynamics metrics: Cadence, Vertical Oscillation, Ground Contact Time, Ground Contact Time Balance, Stride Strength, and Vertical Ratio.

HRM-Swim Specifically designed for swimmers, the HRM-Swim stores heart rate information while in the water. Once you’re resting out of the water, real-time heart rate, interval summaries and stored heart rate are transmitted to your compatible Garmin device.

Getting Started

• Out of the box, the HRM is very easy to use. All you need to do is install the battery, wrap the sensor around your chest, and connect your GPSr. The HRM automatically starts sending data after you put it on.

Connect to HRM

• Select [Setup] > [Sensors] or [ANT Sensor] > [HR Monitor] > [Search for new]
• GPSr will report 'Searching...'
• Choose the desired HRM and ANT or BLE connection if prompted
• GPSr will report 'Connected' once the HR Monitor is paired

Enable HRM

• Select [Setup] > [Sensors] or [ANT Sensor] > [HR Monitor] > [On]
• GPSr will report 'Searching...' then 'Connected' once a paired HR Monitor is located

Disable HRM

• Select [Setup] > [Sensors] or [ANT Sensor] > [HR Monitor] > [Off]
• GPSr will report the HR Monitor as 'Disabled'

View HRM Data

• HRM data can be viewed on your Garmin Outdoor Recreation GPSr via multiple Data Fields
• Data Field availability may vary from one device to the next

Heart Rate Zone Calculations

• To calculate your Maximum Heart Rate (MHR), subtract your age from 220. (for someone 35 years of age, the Maximum Heart Rate would be 185 bpm)
• The MHR is the upper limit of what your cardiovascular system can handle during physical activity.
• Exercise within 55 to 85 percent of your maximum heart rate for at least 20 to 30 minutes to get the best results from aerobic exercise.
   

Resting Heart Rate

• A normal Resting Heart Rate (RHR) based on age and physical condition is displayed in the chart below
• Multiple factors can influence your RHR including age, activity, fitness, stress, ambient temperature, body position, medications, diet or illness

BaseCamp and HRM

• When recording a track log or activity with a HRM connected, your Garmin GPSr will include heart rate data with each track point saved.
• Saved track logs (GPX) and activities (FIT) can be imported into BaseCamp for analysis.
  
  

Saved Track Log Properties Tab includes recorded heart rate data for each track point
