hi amy i have a polar HRM also and have found the same thing! I tend to go with the polar as it is attached to me thus feels more accurate...however there have been times when i have worked out hard and it doesn't show me what i want to see lol!!! good luck x

(wearing a knee length skirt with thick black…

Hi May thank you for replying...:flowerforyou: good thinking, I think I was having a freak out moment!
