This post is mostly for women, but hey - moobs exist so maybe it can apply to gents as well. I'm an equal opp question person :)

So, to the point - do you wear your HRM strap under your boobs or over? (IE: under the bra bottom/edge)

Reason II'm asking - I wear underwire bras. I have found that sometimes the wire seems to effect the transmitter or the strap gets caught under the edge and won't sit flat against me. And yes, one day I will acquire "sport bras" when I can find some that fit - LOL.

I have been considering wearing the strap above my boobs, under the bra (so it stays tight against me) but I'm not sure if the monitor will work correctly in this location. Anybody have any ideas? Suggestions? Funny remarks and silly quotes?

    Definitely under - as for bras, try moving comfort. They have super supportive bras in a wide range of sizes. :) I wouldn't recommend working out in a regular bra - you will wear it out, and you really need the support!! :)
