Do you wet your HRM each time you use it or did you just wet it once...Im just curious how people wear their straps & what they do. I wish they had a HRM that cud count calories w/just the watch only.

    I wet mine each time. And I handwash it every 3rd workout to get he dirt & salt out of the connectors. . . . They do make watch-only HRM's. They take the pulse at the wrist and they do it manually via button press, not auto/continuous like the chest strap. Search Amazon for "Mio Heart rate Watch"

    I also wet mine each time before a workout and handwash it every 2-3 days.

    I wet my Zephyr HxM band before each use. I wash it every 3-4 days pending on how much I sweat. Basically your just putting a little of water on your chest so the HRM can pick up an electrical current easier.
