looking for a general rule of thumb for using the HRM....

how long do you let your HRM run after you've completed your exercise?

for instance, if you do a 30 min video - how long after you completed the video is ur HRM still on?

Thanks for the tips.

    I turn mine off once my workout is complete.

    I use a garmin gps/hrm when I'm running and hit the end button as soon as I finish the run (but leave the display on during my cool down to see how quickly my HR recovers)
