Garmin HRM-Fit, Heart Rate Monitor Designed for Women, Clip-On Design

very comfortable
Idea for women because it uses your sports bra to clip onto and hold into place. It’s a meaningful improvement by eliminating the extra strap running around your middle.

I’ve waited for something like this for a long time!
But why 4 stars then? I’m still kinda “iffy” on this. While it is so much better than the arm heart rate I was using and is more accurate than the built in wrist HR on my Garmin watch, I’m still not sure about this.Tbf, this is the first HR monitor strap I’ve used. I’ve only ever used just the watch HR or the HR monitor that goes on the arm just below the elbow.That being said, here are some pros and cons that I’ve come to notice using it 5-6 days a week:Pros:-Easy to put on-Works with pretty much all my sports bra I own (for my longline sports bra, I just fold the band under a bit before clipping it on and it has worked just fine that way)-Fast and easy to take off-I like that I’m getting a more accurate HR when working out/running-Connects easily to the Peloton app, Garmin watchCons:-Bulky/bumpy – can see it under the tank top-Certain floor work, like with yoga or post workout stretch, it’s uncomfortable because you can’t lay on stomach with it on for some stuff and if I’m out on trail, I don’t necessarily want to take it off just to do some stretching-Can be uncomfortable at times. I often feel like I have to keep adjusting it because it’s bulky and I can feel it in an uncomfortable way.-Unsure about battery life. It seems like it will be okay but after 3 uses, battery dropped to the 80% range. Be a bummer if I had to replace batteries constantly but we’ll see. So far it’s been okay and hasn’t dropped too much so it may be the battery was older on the one I got so wasn’t a full 100% when I started out.-Cost. It’s quite pricey for how uncomfortable, stiff and bulky and possible chafing issues.All in all, I kept it and didn’t return it because I do like the ease of clip it on and go and that my tighter long sleeve shirts don’t cause a problem like with the armband. I don’t like the feel of it and can’t wait to take it off so I wish it was more comfortable vs it feeling so stiff and bulky and like I have to adjust it a few times and that it might chafe after wearing it for awhile – like longer runs or workouts. Time will tell if I end up liking it more but right now I don’t love it but it’s the better option from what is currently available to me without spending more money

Works great – pairs easily with Garmin watch
I got this HRM so I could better track my heart rate while marathon training this year. It paired easily with my Garmin Forerunner and was easy to put on and comfortable (no chafing noted). I wear an Oiselle Flyout bra and it clipped on with no issues. The only negative is it smells a little like a bandaid even if it’s clean, nothing terrible though.

Too finicky for this runner
This HR monitor has been a headache for me, a runner. I think it’s ideal when paired with a snug bra with a solid band that’s the same height. But then, it kind of defeats the purpose of having a monitor that doesn’t wrap around. As noted by another reviewer, it doesn’t work well with the Lululemon Free to be Wild bra — the bra band is not wide/tall enough for it to clip in snug. It’s also not ideal with a bra that isn’t super snug. When I clip it onto a comfortable fitting bra that doesn’t strangle me, the bulk of the central clip bounces up and down, causing chafing. I tried placing the monitor inside the bra, right above the band. The Lululemon Free to be Wild bra is snug enough that this works to keep the data consistent, but it didn’t just chafe, it carved into my skin. It took a week to heal and now I have a scar. I tried tucking it into an alternate bra and the data didn’t register at all. I’m going back to the original model. This was an expensive experiment. It was really disruptive to my runs and now I have really weird HR data for a couple of weeks.

Très satisfaite.Facile à utiliser.Facile à installer.Stable pendant les mouvements

Normal, buen uso.
