Hey folks
I have a fitbit, which I use for HR, step tracking, and HIIT workouts I do on off days, and I use Jefit for my main strength training. With some recent changes to increase effort/HR during my strength training, the extra sweatiness of me is making my fitbit not work as well for HR during workouts.
I have specific cardio goals to meet, so getting relatively good data on my HR is important to me. I have a Polar H10 I could use, but I’d need to use Beat/Flow, which will then cause sync issues with Jefit and its own data going to Google Fit (I’ve had fun with this in the past).
I don’t have this issue with Fitbit, since rather than a Fit sync, its Health Connect, and just syncs the data throughout the day in the background, and I don’t sync activities from Fitbit.
Any ideas?
This is the only answer. The H10 is the only HRM that is worth a damn for accuracy during workouts, especially something intense like HIIT.
FWIW the Polar app is great too, and very privacy-friendly. It does sync automatically with Google/Fitbit services.
It supports Google Fit. It does not support Health Connect.
Have you checked out Health Sync? That’s what I used to sync before just syncing directly to Strava/Fit from Polar Beat
I haven’t, but looks promising! Will check it out thanks
