“Do I need a chest strap to monitor my heart rate while swimming? Can I use the chest strap from my Polar V800?”

• I went with the garmin hrm-pro which works fantastically. For running and swimming, even under a wetsuit. It also tracks your stride and how even you run on each foot. The hrm-tri is also good I’ve heard, though I’ve never used it. I know that the garmin can sync to other brands of monitors depending on the connection technology.

• The device will do underwater wrist-based heart rate or heart rate from external HRM (real-time during rests, interval and session stats during rest, and automatic heart rate download post-swim) with HRM Tri and HRM Swim. Debbie with Garmin
