I'm attempting my first Zumba class tonight and I'm debating whether or not I should wear my HRM. Will it stay in place or is it not even worth trying?

I'm terrified of doing this...my body really doesn't move like that but it sure looks like fun!

    I'm assuming you are talking about an HRM with a chest strap? Just make sure the strap is tight enough and you shouldn't have any problems. I wear mine (a Polar FT4) to spin class and running and I have yet to have a problem with it.

    I wear my Polar FT7 HRM to Zumba class without any problems. I like to see how I'm doing throughout the class and my HRM gives me a better read than just guessing what my exertion level is.
