Anyone have aNordic Trac treadmill HR strap?

Does it seem to read accurate. Mine was all over the place. It was like 168, then 141, then 158.All in 10 sec. I have no idea what my heart rate was on the stupid thing. Am i doing something wrong?
I put in on right at the underneath part of my sports bra.
I just try to stay in my safety zone. I don't want to blow up my heart. I can always modify the program.

Ok, no one has one out there. Doesn't have to be Nordic trac. I think they are all the same.

Anne ~ it sounds as if it is picking up some interferency with something else. You might try using a coded one.

OR, it may be that it isn't making good contact with you skin. Try wetting your skin before you put it on.

Anne, I have a Nordic Track treadmill. My strap stays consistant. I put in the middle though up under the base of my sports bra. It always seems much more accurate than the hand grips which fluctuate for me.

It seems to read better when i am sweating. Maybe that is the issue.
Do you make it tight or let the sports bra hold it in place?
It seemed to be reading last night.I need to double check it with my watch. I have a strapless watch .
