    I caught myself wearing my HRM about an hour after my run the other day. I just forgot I had it on. I hardly notice it's there. And I'm a guy so I am not used to wearing a strap on my chest.

    You don't wear your wife's bras when she's not at home? I thought everyone had that fantasy. I do that sometimes so having that strap around my chest wasn't an odd feeling at all.

    Only on Friday's.

    I put mine on before my bra, so the strap is under the bottom band. I don't notice it and have not had issues with it slipping. ( I have a Garmin) My bra causes more discomfort....

    Ah, I see. Others were saying that it won't bother you as long as you don't tighten it too much, so my question is: will it slide off? I mean, if you're bouncing about running and everything, how often does it fall?

    Mine will slide in the back a little but I have a large barrel chest so my upper chest is thicker than my lower. I run 3-4 miles on a regular basis and it doesn't move once it settles.

    Check out Instant Heart Rate on Google Play! This app is amazing. I use it when I'm not wearing my heartrate monitor sometimes because I almost always have my phone.
