What to check before buying

Check compatibility first

Confirm your app’s connection protocol for live heart rate. For watch-free workouts or advanced running metrics, also check the requirements for that specific feature.

If you are between sizes

Measure your chest where the strap will sit. The size ranges overlap from 80 to 85 cm. Check the selected size on the Amazon listing.
