32. Optimizations for Best Heart Rate
If you find that you have trouble getting a solid heart rate signal, here are
some things you can try that tend to increase available signal:
●
Maintain a fully closed but relaxed fist during walking and running
events. This limits the additional, isolated movements of the finger, and
a good fit allows a fully closed fist to occur without feeling
uncomfortably constrictive.
●
Wear gloves during cold weather activities to enhance blood flow.
●
A warm-up may be needed to encourage blood flow.
