HR Monitor Cuts Me In Half (lemmy.world)

Anything over 9 miles or so and my chest gets a gnarly rash right in the middle of my chest where my HRM sits. I put a decent amount of body glide, and no change.

Anyone have a way to combat this?

Interesting idea. I'm not sure that would work. I sweat so much I can't imagine anything sticking. I have pretty sensitive skin, too. I had to wear a 24-hour holter monitor and I literally still have a spot on my skin where the patch was in the shape of a square from months ago!
