After every activity I do using my watch, I get ‘new HR threshold’ notifications, which is rarely true as we all know wrist based HR data is very hit or miss, especially after a Zone 2 jog.
Be great of there was an option to ignore all HR data from watches…???
I do use a chest strap occasionally when I want accurate data, but not comfortable wearing it every run.
On the activity page click ‘Actions’ - ‘Ignore Part’ and there you can ignore HR
Thanks, I’ve tried this option and get an error…
Try Actions - Settings ´Ignore HR´.
To ignore part, you probably first need to make a selection where you want to ignore.
thanks, didn’t realize I was selecting ignore part…
Still be good for a global setting to ignore all HR data unless selected to do so…???
Sounds counterintuitive…
Why ignore data by default if it is in the FIT???
yeah I get that I could just turn off HR on the watch… but although the wrist based HR is inaccurate overall, it still gives OK data during the exercise as a guide.
it’s just that I get new HR threshold notifications after every session isn’t ideal…
Where on your wrist do you wear the watch? I can get remarkably accurate data when compared to a strap with the watch worn 2 fingers up from the wrist bone, on a more ‘meaty’ part of the arm than down at the wrist

It often helps to turn the watch to the inside of your wrist, where the artery is close to the skin.
