Hello, In order to know my HR rest, I have tried to measure it while sleeping; but without sweat, is very difficult for monitor chest belt ๐ Retrying with some drops of water between skin and chest-belt is a little bit better, but after some hours, HR monitor lost signal.
Somebody have tried with specific ECG gel? Does it works also after hours?
There is no HRM out there which it can pick up my HR without the gel. I don't know that it could last hours, but you could try. Make sure you use it enough.
I indoor train in an unheated attic - morning temps in the 40's. If I didn't use Buh-Bump cream, I wouldn't get a reading on my HR monitor until well into the workout.

Maybe I'm just naturally moist during sleep ๐, but I had no trouble with the chest strap the one time I tried recording my HR while sleeping. Recorded an average of 43 bpm, minimum 36 bpm. I don't know if the random spikes are instrumentation error or just "natural."
I am just getting into bicycing and I wanted to know how fast my heart is beating when I am peddling hard. I ordered a heart rate moniter online. The picture looks as if it goes on my wrist like a watch. I guess that I need to be enlightened on HR moniters. Thanks
