A welcome addition to my workouts.
on May 17, 2026
Posted by: Paul S (psp)
I bought the HRM-600 because it records intensity minutes, and because it can be used to record activities even if my phone or Fenix 7 watch are not present. I have used it many times since it arrived on my doorstep. It works great. And here's the "but". The list of activities it can record via preset activities in Garmin Connect is extensive, but does not include "Walk" or "Walking". Instead I have to use "Other". So. Overall it's much better than 4 stars, but not quite 5.

A great product

Works really well. I use it weight lifting and intense cardio (high incline treadmill, high incline resistance elliptical). It gives an accurate and much more stable picture of my heart rate zones (try to stay zone 3 to 4). I had an older version and I enjoy that this can be detached and washed. The rechargeable feature is amazing. It was annoying at first to setup but after taking it off the encrypted mode (I don't know why that even exists) it paired with my instinct 2.
I enjoy tracking all of my workouts and I like Garmins workout metrics a lot. I highly recommend anyone that trains in a hybrid manner (serious weight lifting and serious cardio) to invest in a chest monitor. I can also take my watch off for heavy shrugs and rows (using straps) which is an added bonus.

Have used it on all my runs for a month now, (150+ miles) and it’s easy to use and clean. Nothing like accurate heart readings for your data. Haven’t even had to charge it yet.

Kinda pricey for what it is. But it’s very nice, much more accurate than my watch alone.

Great features, and a solid upgrade from the HRM P

I've been a happy user of the HRM Pro. I like the detachable HR unit and the charging capabilities but I'm still getting used to the differences of the HRM Pro. Take note, I'm a small guy with a 38" chest and the small size strap barely is long enough. Not quite inline with the description. If it were I'd go 5 stars. I'm still quite happy though.

Minus:
-less comfortable dan HRM Pro (yellow) I fill something "hard"
-I had a problem to connect on Fenix in ANT+ mode (I had to delete connection Blueetoth and add again)
-It's ok in 95% of use, maybe software update get some battery extended for ultra racers (read and send 2-3 time less than normal Plus -don't care about battery, care about cable, small size, i don't care about how long I can clean in water. I can disconnect device
