I'm a new fitbit user with a charge 6.
For those that do any type of upper body weight training, how has your experience been?
I've noticed that I don't get very accurate HR readings if I leave by band a notch loose when doing gym cardio (registers 85bpm when going full speed, but is a more realistic 150 to 160bpm when adjusted). Tightening my band for cardio is fine, but I tend to run into issues with upper body weight exercises like chest press, curls, etc. Main issue being that I get a "pump" which makes the fit considerably tighter, to the point where it feels like it's partially restricting blood flow and flexibility, which makes it difficult to lift closer to my limits. So I find it annoying because then I find myself fiddling with my strap and watch placement to find something that fits comfortably but maintains accurate tracking. Does anyone experience the same issues and if so how do you work around it?
