Do you track your HR, IST? What do you use?
Is Polar Verity Sense still the affordable price performance king?

no I just assume it is good and it probably is because im not a fatty/roidtroony
I have an apple watch, I'm very happy with it. Check out The Quantitative Scientist on youtube, he made a lot of videos on the topic.
>I have an apple watch, I'm very happy with it.
lmao no you're not, you're gaslighting yourself into thinking you're happy with it so you won't feel the buyer's remorse
Not all of us are poorgays anon.
I've got one too, I actually use the breaths-per-minute-while-sleeping to track my cardio fitness more than resting heartrate, but it's great for when I'm trying to target 130 BPM on the treadmill for fat burn, and 180 BPM for my HIIT
I have a watch for this. It's better at monitoring my sleep because it loses heart rate accuracy as soon as I start to sweat. Seems to double bpm for some reason.
polar h10 here.
Do you guys like it? I know it is supposed to be the most accurate one, but I imagine chest straps being uncomfortable as frick for many lifts.
yea, it's totaly fine to wear and don't bother at all. i tested its accuracy and it was comparable to ECG. i got mine for what equals to around 70-80 usd and could highly recommend it since you change battery yearly and it's also waterproof (wich apart from swimming also means easy to wash)
That person linked to two different straps, do you have the Garmin or Polar? Because I'm looking at the Polar.
polar is still the industry standard, just get one
Thank you anon
ii'm sorry. i have polar h10
and you
my pleasure
yes
>I need a 150$ device to do what counting heartbeats for 15 seconds and multiplying by 4 accomplishes
>imagine paying to lift barbells and plates when you could go outside and lift rocks for free
people pay for conveniences all the time anon, you have plenty of "useless" stuff too
Knowing the exact weight and being able to go up in set increments makes weights easier, not the mention the bar is better to grip. They're more sturdy than rocks, which chip much much more easily too. You have to hunt down a rock of the exact weight you want, which might not be possible when you can just use plates instead. Counting your own heartbeat is literally more accurate than most of these watches. Not analogous at all.
I had a garmin with wrist heart rate monitor (green laser light). The switched to real one with electrodes around the breast. From my experience so far, it seems to show lower heart rate most of the time. The watch is not that accurate.
Forgot pic related: it's me and my b***h.
Compatible with many devices.
I used to but stopped because I psych myself out when using one. I have a naturally high first lactate threshold so no workout programs based on %HR ever aligned with my body. For most people the first lactate threshold is between 62-67% max HR and for me it’s almost 75% so I can’t use any heart rate tracker to do my workout I just go based on feel.
This is with regards to competitive cycling btw
why is that important?
unless you're a roider and you have to monitor in case you fricked up, I don't see why you need to know
wrist hr are garbage, even the luxury premium watches, all worthless
