The HRM-Pro Plus is a heart rate monitor designed to provide comprehensive data for various activities, including running, swimming, and general activity tracking. It offers real-time feedback and stores data for later analysis, making it a versatile tool for athletes and fitness enthusiasts.
The primary function of the HRM-Pro Plus is to accurately measure and transmit heart rate data. It achieves this by being worn directly on the skin, just below the sternum, ensuring a strong connection between the electrodes and the chest. The device is active and begins sending data as soon as it is put on.
Beyond basic heart rate monitoring, the HRM-Pro Plus excels in providing advanced running dynamics. Equipped with an accelerometer, it measures torso movement to calculate six key running metrics:
The heart rate monitor also calculates running pace and distance, even when GPS is unavailable (e.g., during treadmill running), by using your user profile and the motion measured by its sensor on every stride. This data can be viewed on compatible Garmin devices or third-party training apps.
For swimming, the HRM-Pro Plus records and stores heart rate data underwater. While heart rate data is not transmitted in real-time to paired Garmin devices while submerged, it is stored internally. During rest intervals out of the water, the monitor sends average and maximum heart rate for the previous interval, along with real-time heart rate, to your Garmin device. After a timed swim activity is saved, the stored heart rate data is automatically uploaded to your Garmin device and can be reviewed in the device history and on your Garmin Connect account.
Furthermore, the HRM-Pro Plus functions as an activity tracker. Whenever worn, it monitors daily metrics such as step count, calories burned, intensity minutes, and all-day heart rate. This activity data is sent to your Garmin Connect account when the monitor is awake and within range of your smartphone. The TrueUp™ feature ensures that activity tracking data from the HRM-Pro Plus is integrated into the daily summary section in Garmin Connect and across your compatible Garmin devices, even if you wear only the HRM-Pro Plus during an activity.
The device also features heart rate storage for timed activities. This allows you to record heart rate data during fitness activities or team sports where wearing a watch might not be feasible, even if you move away from your paired device. The stored data is automatically sent to your compatible Garmin device when you save the activity, provided the monitor is active and within range. If data is not downloaded immediately, it can be accessed later from the device's history menu. The HRM-Pro Plus stores up to 18 hours of activity history, with older data being overwritten when the memory is full.
To use the HRM-Pro Plus, it must first be put on correctly. The electrodes on the back of the monitor should be wet to ensure a strong connection with the chest. The monitor is then wrapped around the chest, with the Garmin logo facing right-side up and the loop and hook connection on the right side. It should fit snugly to remain in place during activity.
Pairing the heart rate monitor is essential for data transmission. It can be paired with:
The HRM-Pro Plus can also link to compatible fitness equipment using either ANT+ or Bluetooth technology, allowing you to view your heart rate directly on the equipment console. Look for the ANT+LINK HERE or Bluetooth logos on the equipment.
Proper care of the HRM-Pro Plus is crucial for its longevity and accurate performance.
