Garmin HRM-PRO Plus Heart Rate Monitor + Strap
The Garmin HRM-Pro Plus is a functional electronic accessory. The heart rate sensor measures your heart rate with high accuracy. The HRM-Pro Plus replaces the older Garmin HRM-Pro Plus, the heart rate sensor for runners, and the HRM-Tri, the heart rate sensor specifically designed for triathletes. In terms of looks, the HRM-Pro resembles its predecessors, but functionally, it is a significant step forward. The HRM-Pro sensor includes Bluetooth, making it easy to connect the heart rate sensor to smartphones, sports watches, and devices that support Bluetooth connectivity.
The heart rate sensor measures, among other things, your cadence (the number of steps per minute), ground contact time (the duration your foot is in contact with the ground during running), ground contact time balance (the balance between the time your left and right foot contact the ground), your stride length, and your vertical oscillation (the 'step height' in your running motion, or the vertical movement of the upper body). The old HRM-Tri also measured these, but the key difference is that the HRM-Pro can transmit this data via both ANT+ and Bluetooth. This provides more options during training, whether you train indoors or outdoors. The HRM-Pro allows two Bluetooth Low Energy connections simultaneously, enabling you to send measured data via Bluetooth to both your smartphone and a sports watch, fitness device, or other Bluetooth device. Additionally, an ANT+ connection is also possible.
If you prefer training without other devices nearby and prefer to leave your phone and sports watch at home, the HRM-Pro stores all data on its internal memory. Through the ‘Store-and-Forward’ function, the heart rate sensor automatically sends all data to your sports watch or phone after your training. If you wear the HRM-Pro without a paired sports watch, the sensor also stores other information such as the number of steps taken, calories burned, and training intensity.
The HRM-Tri is waterproof up to 5 ATM, or 50 meters. Like the older HRM-Tri, the HRM-Pro can accurately measure your heart rate underwater, making the new Garmin HRM-Pro Plus an ideal heart rate sensor for triathletes. The battery in the HRM-Pro lasts about one year with average use (approximately 1 hour per day). The battery is easy to replace.
