Logging boxing training without a heart rate monitor

Typical effort: 85–93 % of maximum heart rate (de Lira 2013; Slimani 2018). Generate a complete .fit file for a session you could not record.

Why the band comes off

Hand wraps go on before gloves, and a wrist band sits exactly where the wrap needs to be. Wearing it under the wrap is uncomfortable and blocks the sensor; wearing it over is not an option once the gloves are on.

What heart rate to expect

Boxing rounds produce 85–93 % of maximum heart rate. The round structure is clearly visible in the trace: heart rate climbs through each three-minute round and only partially recovers in the one-minute break, so successive rounds start from a progressively higher baseline.
