🩸 Scosche Rhythm+ Heart Rate Monitor Armband: Dual Band Radio ANT+ and Bluetooth Smart Review

Have used this product at CrossFit for the last 3 years. First, the placement of this wrap is amazing - placing it on my forearm leaves my wrists free for wraps and grips. It doesn't slide or go anywhere and it sits comfortably. Second, the monitor displays colors that correspond to the heart rate zone you're in (red, blue, purple). I would like to adjust these parameters so that the red blinks at a specific frequency. I've actually owned 2 of these since I lost my first one. I have to say that

I had to bet between 4 and 5 stars. I'd give this a 4-1/2 if I could. Pros: 1) Because of the RHYTHM ANT+ and Bluetooth capabilities, it will pair with pretty much anything rarely found in HRM receivers. I've tried this with my Garmin 920XT device, as well as the Moov and MapMyFitness and ZAP apps! It's in pairs. Did! Easy.2) It provides a reliable heart rate number. Maybe that's "okay, DUH," but if you've used Garmin products (or a few others that get risky on a regular basis), you know what…

Scosche Rhythm+ seems to work very well for any activity on land that doesn't require flexing the part of the body the bracelet is attached to. With this band on my forearm I can do all the exercises in the gym and record correctly except for the biceps work (sometimes chest work) where my forearms bend like crazy and at that moment the sensor moves and reads my heart rate at 60 (yes , correct!). Also, my forearm usually sweats a lot at this point when it moves, and the water between the…

I originally ordered the Fitbit Versa 3 because the product description said it showed a continuous heart rate, which would be more comfortable to use than my Polar with a wet chest strap. The fact that it had GPS and a few smartwatch capabilities was a plus, but the main things I wanted was a readable display in ambient light and continuous heart rate tracking. Unfortunately, the heart rate monitor was extremely inaccurate. When I was doing light intervals on my bike it jumped to 130 bpm when…

I bought this HRM as an alternative to chest straps which are still considered the gold standard but can be a little uncomfortable at times (I wear the HRM to the gym and also do cardio so the chest strap can feel squeezing during certain exercises) and can rub even if you keep it clean, use gel etc. Overall this is a pretty solid device: it syncs well with my Garmin FR230. It's comfortable (I wear it quite tight and still don't notice it when I work out), it's quite stretchy to wear (depending
