Product Summary

Garmin HRM Pro Plus is a chest strap style heart rate monitor that also provides information on steps, calories burned, and intensity minutes. When paired with a compatible Garmin watch it can also provide data on running dynamics. So you’ll get the most bang for your buck if you already have other Garmin Devices. Customers very strongly dislike the Garmin Connect app update from early 2024 that changed the user interface.
