Hi,

When in treadmill mode on my Surge the HR is showing as much lower than I would expect. I've read that you should position the watch higher up your arm when running but I've tried this and other positions and my HR just seems to sit around the 110bpm mark, even when I'm running at a higher pace. Any ideas? Regards, Rob

Hi, @SunsetRunner, you may also need to wear it a notch tighter and to make that sweat is not interfering with the signal.
