HR suunto chest strap
-
@iterumtenta
I’m using it…️ -
I have used the Suunto, Wahoo, Polar and now Morpheus chest strap with no chafing issues from any of them… what area are you getting the chafing?
-
@peegee The solution could be a “running bra” for men that you can put the heart rate strap inside like there is a training bra for women by Polar
-
@Danny-poleg
I’m familiar with the bra…️
We need Suunto to come up with a solution for men️ -
@larrybbaker chaffed mostly o the front both sides equally.
Could you give a link for the strap you mentioned? -
@iterumtenta so I hear from so many people, I might be the exception
-
Move it lower maybe?

@peegee
@Danny-poleg suggested this hr vest which looks very promising.https://www.cardiosport.co.uk/product-page/biovest-smart-heart-rate-vest
Trouble is they don’t have a variety of sizes at all
And unfortunately don’t ship to my country…
Does anyone know of a similar solution? -
@peegee I use the Suunto HRM but run the whole thing under a tap before putting it on (sensor & strap) so the whole thing is soaking wet then wear it only just tight enough so it doesn’t slip down.
I used to wear it much tighter as the strap slipped down when dry until my sweat held it in place & I did get some chaffing, wearing it wet & looser stopped the chafe immediately
It’s a bit of a shock putting it on this way on a cold autumn morning but works for me so give it a try mate.

I used to get chaffed when using a neo for swimming until I read that others aply vaseline maybe give that a try just at the problematik spots.
