Verity Sense

Wrist sensors are vulnerable to cadence lock, where the watch thinks your running cadence is your heart rate (so instead of showing 125 it says your heart rate is 165 which is clearly wrong). I have a Coros Pace 3 and this was an extremely annoying problem for me. It didn't matter how tight the watc

Hi there The H10 is a sensor. A plain non-smart sensor which basically either record the heart rate in its memory if triggered by Polar Beat app, or broadcasts heart rate and some other data lika RR, ECG and Acceleration depending on which application it is used with. Most often only HR. It does not

I agree with altered, chest straps are mandatory if you are planning to program/train based on the readings.As a long time strength and conditioning coach and weekend warrior, I keep a number of devices (they last a long long time) to maintain accurate measurement. My #1 is the polar h10, which I've

I am finding heart rate pretty ok although I do not trust optical sensors and always use an external heart rate monitor. After reading your post, I did some hill intervals (climbing on 11% average grade hills). I used a Garmin Epix paired with a Polar Verity Sense, the Pace Pro on my left wrist and

That’s exactly how I use my Polar Loop. I wear my V3 for training sessions, and when I get home I synch it, turn it off (saves battery life), and put on my Loop for the rest of the day. Since the latest firmware updates I have found the Loop’s heart rate tracking and sleep tracking to be flawless. A

I totally get this, I just get frustrated when people talk down to others, so I apologise if you feel I've been following you around but it is not fair to criticise and accuse people of wanting a "fashion accessory" when the information you're providing is based primarily on people's online complain

After years of using Garmin I moved to Polar earlier this year. Polar was the only option that with watch plus sensors could properly cover my sports. Running with pacer pro plus chest strap and football (soccer) training and league games with recording feature of Verity Sense/OH1. Also I give the s

Smart watches wrist HR sensors can be very unreliable especially when shock is involved. Are right handed and wearing the watch on your left wrists but have a 2 handed backhand ? That might be enough to throw off the readings. Being a keen cyclist as a well as playing tennis - only light hitting wit

Most dedicated heart rate monitors from big brands will do the trick. Polar and Garmin have chest strap monitors, and Polar and Coros has an arm-based HR sensor. All of these are likely accurate enough for your needs. That being said though.... doing something like the Norwegian 4x4 workout which ha

Hi,I would also say that if you run... better go for a watch.I mean, if you want to get better at running, you need to pay attention to your heart rate, working out inside some specific zones, so it's better to be able to check this out easily rather than using you phone during the run... Also if yo
