Merrigan, Justin J.; Stovall, J. Hannah; Stone, Jason D.; Stephenson, Mark; Finomore, Victor S.; Hagen, Joshua A. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2023
Heart rate samples (n = 4500-8000) from wearables were compared to electrocardiography during a steady-state ruck (Ruck-S), maximal effort ruck (Ruck-M), submaximal cycle (Cycle), and Tabata Circuit. One device was worn at each location (wrist: Polar Grit-X, Garmin Fenix 6; chest-straps: Polar H10, Garmin HRM-Pro; armband: Polar Verity).…
