I use my HRM while football training. As you can't wear watches during an actual football match, how far can i be away from my watch while still wearing the HRM strap??

    Depends on the technology in it .. if it's ANT - 15-20 feet. If it's bluetooth 3-4 feet. In theory BT should have about a 10 meter range. But ..

    to be honest- if you can't get it to work- I'm sure you run practice games on your own field with your own team- just ball park it off that.

    General trends are more important than every single data point being precise and accurate- extrapolating/interpolating this data is easy if you get a LOT of it- so having 1 point a week being off by a few points is really negligible.
