Forget the Salty Paste

This particular Garmin heart strap only works well if heart rate is normal and chest is sweaty.

Today’s main workout was 30 minutes. Overall time and distance was less than yesterday but was more than 10K meters.

There was interference from atrial fibrillation and though I tried salty paste on the Garmin heart strap again today, like yesterday, it didn’t seem to make any difference. Atrial fibrillation overrode any benefit from better electrical conduction between chest and strap.

In addition to the 30 minute piece there were three other sessions. They were shorter, on both SkiErg and rowing machine. You can see the graphs and data for those by visiting this link to my online logbook, looking for log entries that were made on today’s date and clicking their corresponding “+” signs in the Action column.
