HRM-Fit

No more chafe!!

I've worn the other HR strap for a few years and essentially just got used to the literal scab on my chest from the chafe after every single run. I tried tightening, loosening, moving it to different spots, everything. Then Garmin does this incredible thing where they created a women's specific product and for the first time ever, NO MORE CHAFE! It's comfortable, easy to clean and put on. It sucks if you already have the other strap, but I'd say if you struggle with chafe like I did with that, it's worth it to purchase. And I love to support women specific products!

Simple and easy

Bought this as sometimes I felt super constructed with the full strap. Hooks on to various sports bras no issues. I do have one sports bra that’s a little looser and I tend to lose connection (especially outside as opposed to on the trainer). Accidentally washed it once and still works.

I love it!

For me, I have 0 chafing and it works so well! It is very comfy and I am loving this compared to some of the others I have used!

Very comfortable.

I am loving this HR monitor that connects seamlessly with my sports bra. It is comfortable to wear and seems to track data well with or without the use of my watch during an activity.

Overall good product

I like that it clips easily to my sports bra, that makes it more comfortable that the regular strap. HOWEVER, you have to have the right sports bra or it doesn't get a good reading. I have various lengths sports bras, so this can be challenging. I did chafe with it on my 20 mile run, despite putting body glide on, right by the side clip. I am not sure if this was due to the design, or due to user error. I have had some workouts where I am not sure if it is as accurate as the other heart rate straps since it is not as tight. Time will tell.

HRM-Fit - jut okay

The HRM-Fit is just okay. Sometimes it disconnects depending on the sports bra I'm wearing. I have to wet it every time before I put it on for it to connect. I'm disappointed but will make it work

Very convenient but causes rash

I bought this thinking it would eliminate the rash marks I get from the Garmin Pro HR strap. Unfortunately that is not the case. The rash marks are worse. Disappointed …. It also seems to not be as accurate as the strap, I checked to ensure it is installed properly but get fluctuations in HR that I don’t see with the Pro.

Very Comfortable

This is the most comfortable heartrate strap I have ever owned. No more pinching or discomfort. I can even wear it all day with no problem. It’s easy to attach to any bra and it stays in place comfortably. Highly recommend.

Outstanding!!

I hate wearing heart rate straps because they are uncomfortable and hard to keep in place. The clip on HRM is so easy to wear and so comfortable I forget I'm even wearing it. I have not had any chafing with it and I wear it for a multitude of activities. I don't even know what would cause chafing since it just clips on to the front. I can also wear it with a front zip bra fine. Fantastic product.

So bad, I returned it!

I had great expectations with this monitor but was sorely (!) disappointed in how much it chafed no matter what I did :(
