How large is the heart rate sensor? Can it be worn unnoticed under your clothes?

Obviously the answer depends on how tight your shirt is. When I work out I keep it under my base layer and you would never know I'm wearing it.

You have a strap that goes fully around you and the monitor is about 2x1" so it can go under clothing

You could wear it under loose clothes without being noticed. If wearing body hugging cloths may be able to see it. The strap is an elastic material, the sensor is about an inch and a half wide and about a third of an inch thick.

Make sure the protective coverings have been removed. I wipe mine down with alcohol prep pads. A light grip gives the best accuracy is what I have found. I wear a heart monitor most of the time when working out and it is within 5-7 bpm on the high side in comparrison. I hope this helps. This is the best investment of health equipment I have ever bought. I did add 1" pedal extentions to bring my legs away from the center console which worked out great as well.

It's kinda big to fit in a shirt pocket and the sensor is permanatly attached. This is more the size of a fluke 97 plus the sensor is about the size of a deck of cards. have stuck it in the pocket of a large jacket or sweatshirt.

The gloves will not slip because you velcor them around your wrist. If your HRM has to be worn at a specific place on the wrist it my be uncomfortable to place it under the Velcro since it's tight around the arm.

Just went down to check my bike to refresh my memory. There is 1 sensor unit you install on your bike. It houses 2 sensors inside (1 for the magnet you put on your pedal for cadence, and 1 for the magnet you put on your back tire for speed). Then of course there is the heart rate band you put around your chest. Please let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks!

Yes; the chest strap is the only way this watch can monitor your heart rate and calories. Without it, it's just a watch with functions you can't use

It will show under a shirt consider the size but it won't cause any discomfort.

Yes you do . It counts calories by heart rate. It is comfortable and you won't even know you have it on.

If you wear the heart rate monitor all day it does. Keep in mind it is a strap around your chest and it is not comfortable for extended uses. I only wear mine during workouts and it works very well.

I believe that it can be worn under your shirt because i wear it below my blouse and i do not wear jackets. It is not bulky at all. I guess i can get away with wearing it because it can be passed off as a broad bra strap but i would recommend that guys wear an under shirt to mask the strap. I hope this helps

Yes. I personally have concealed it under a fitted vest quite well, but not my blouse. It could, but it would definitely add maybe a couple of inches to your waist. The main consideration is the edges of the plastic plates will be very uncomfortable against your skin and will need some kind of cushioning, and it will make you sweat because your skin can't breath, so you will definitely need a vapor barrier. Maybe an undershirt? You will just have to experiment with it for comfort, but it isn't all that terribly bulky.

No you cannot wear this device under clothing......The weights are much too bulky.

the vest is slightly large to wear under clothing the weights are about an inch and a half thick i would imagine it to be like wearing a bullet proof vest if not 1 and a half times the size of a b.p.v. under clothing

6 and 1/2 inches, comfortably. I did get a rash under the strap on my wrist. I made the mistake of wearing it all day. I forgot to take it off. I would recommend you only wear it while working out.

Interesting question. I just measured my arm and it's 12"! But I believe any bigger than that you'd definitely need a bigger cuff, which probably can be ordered. The 12" cuff JUST fits me so any bigger than that, no. It also indicates when you've put it on properly, it has a circle with OK in it. Otherwise, it stops working until you have it on right. It does do heart beats rate but if you have an irregular heart beat, it would possibly show it OR it may shut down. The B/P monitoring company most likely doesn't want to get sued for someone having an irregular heartbeat so I think it will shut down. Contact manufacturer, I'm sure they'd be very happy to help.

I wear mine underneath clothing without a problem. I don't have directly on my skin though, I wear a T-shirt or Termal top and then put the Body Rite on over it. Love this this thing to bad I did not find this years ago. Best 30 Bucks I ever spent!

The heart rate monitor is attached to a strap that fits around your chest, right under your bra, and syncs with the Vivofit. I just wear it when I exercise. Although it bugged me a little when I first started wearing it, I usually forget I have it on now.
