Chest strap heart rate belts like the Wahoo Tickr, Polar H10, Garmin HRM, MyZone MZ-3 chest straps that support ANT+ are supported in studios.

  1. Compatibility: Fitillion is compatible with most ANT+ compatible heart rate monitors, like Wahoo Tickr, Polar H10, Garmin HRM, MyZone MZ-3 devices, but we cannot guarantee the effectiveness of all ANT+ heart rate monitors.
  2. Battery Charged: Make sure there is a charged battery in your heart rate monitor.
  3. Get device ID: You will required the ANT+ ID of your device. This is device dependent (see your manual). Sometimes, when you take the band off, you will see an ID number on the back, eg 12345678. Make a note of this number.

How to wear your chest strap correctly

Refer to the manufacturer’s manual for detailed instructions to wear and activate your chest strap.

Chest straps are typically activated with the following steps:

  1. Attach the monitor device to the chest strap
  2. Moisten the electrode areas on the chest strap that touches your skin
  3. Wrap the strap around your chest, just below your sternum. The heart rate monitor should face outwards and logo/text on the monitor should be upright
  4. Tighten the strap so that the monitor fits firmly against your skin and stays in place during the workout
  5. Beeps or lights often indicate that the chest strap has woken up successfully
