Q: QuestionDoes the Fenix 5 have ability to track whole body work out when used with a chest strap heart monitor? Does it have like an app which would track your heart rate/calories burnt during a regular workout Vs. Just cardio?

Asked 8 years ago by Rich.

• A:Answer It will track your heart rate any time you are wearing it. However, sweat and some arm positions tend to create poor accuracy on the wrist HR monitor. If you are doing non-cardio gym workouts, you will have better accuracy using a chest strap. The watch should automatically pick it up.
