For cycling or a gym session
If a bike computer, watch or app records your workouts, start with the HRM 200. Check whether the receiver expects ANT+ or Bluetooth and use Garmin’s open or secure Bluetooth mode as required.
For workouts when you leave your watch behind
Choose the HRM 600 if a session needs to be saved on the strap. Set up Garmin Connect, then follow Garmin’s process for starting the recording and syncing it afterward. Check support for the specific advanced running metric you want.
