Wearing Aidlab

Zaktualizowano24 kwietnia 2025

You can wear Aidlab in two ways: using a chest strap or a compatible T-shirt or sports bra. Each method has its pros and cons, depending on your activity level and monitoring needs.

Wearing Aidlab with a Chest Strap

Attach Aidlab to the chest strap using its clips and adjust the strap so that all four electrodes (two on the strap and two on Aidlab itself) make direct contact with your skin. Make sure Aidlab is facing the correct direction — do not wear it upside down.

Pros:

• Highest ECG accuracy — perfect for HR zone training
• Unobstructed temperature sensors — full access to body temp readings
• Secure fit — ideal for vigorous movements or all-day monitoring

Cons:

• Might feel tight or less comfortable, depending on your body type
• Needs to be worn firmly to avoid slipping during movement

Wearing Aidlab with a Compatible T-shirt or Sports Bra

Aidlab can also be attached to special garments with embedded electrodes. These are available from select brands (see Supported Clothing below). Simply clip Aidlab in the designated chest area as you would with a strap.

Pros:

• More comfortable — feels more natural, especially during strength workouts
• Less noticeable — great for users who prefer minimal interference

Cons:

• Slightly lower ECG signal quality due to reduced contact stability
• No temperature readings — sensors are covered by fabric

Which Option is Right for You?

Ask yourself:

• Are your workouts heavily HR-dependent?
• Are your movements vigorous (running, cardio) or less dynamic (strength training)?
• Is tracking body temperature important to you?

Choose a chest strap if:

• You need high ECG precision and temperature readings
• You train with heart rate zones or move vigorously

Choose a T-shirt/sports bra if:

• You prioritize comfort and do mostly strength or low-dynamic workouts
• You don’t need temperature data or ultra-precise HR tracking
