A:AnswerThat can depend on what type of workout you're doing. If you are doing a workout such as weights, elliptical, rowing etc., you may need to wear a chest strap as your wrist movement may cause the OHR to read good enough HR. I recommend going to support.garmin.com where you'll find FAQ's on heart rate accuracy.
