2.5. Optical heart rate

Optical heart rate measurement from the wrist is an easy and convenient way to track your
heart rate. Best results for heart rate measurement may be affected by the following factors:
The watch must be worn directly against your skin. No clothing, however thin, can be
between the sensor and your skin
The watch may need to be higher on your arm than where watches are normally worn.
The sensor reads blood flow through tissue. The more tissue it can read, the better.
Arm movements and flexing muscles, such as gripping a tennis racket, can change the
accuracy of the sensor readings.
When your heart rate is low, the sensor may not be able to provide stable readings. A
short warm up of a few minutes before you start the recording helps.
Skin pigmentation and tattoos block light and prevent reliable readings from the optical
sensor.
The optical sensor may not provide accurate heart rate readings for swimming activities.
