he Heart Rate Sensor on My Watch Is Not
Accurate
Optical heart rate sensors work by using lights that can measure small changes in blood volume
in the capillary layer just below the epidermis (outermost of the three layers that make up the
skin) as blood flows through the wrist area. While Garmin’s wrist heart rate monitor technology
is state of the art, there are inherent limitations with the technology that may cause some of the
heart rate readings to be inaccurate under certain circumstances.
The information below describes the main reasons that can affect heart rate accuracy as well as
ways to potentially improve it.
