Amazfit launches dual-sensor Helio Strap Pro for hybrid athletes

Amazfit has launched the Helio Strap Pro, a new screen-free wearable designed for hybrid athletes, particularly those participating in Hyrox events. This system utilizes two sensors: one worn on the upper arm for heart rate and another on the waist for motion sensing, allowing for more accurate tracking of diverse activities like SkiErg and sled pushes. While the Helio Strap Pro can be used independently, it offers enhanced functionality when paired with Amazfit Balance 3 or Balance Ultra watches, which provide specific Hyrox modes. The system aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of an athlete's performance across different disciplines without a monthly subscription fee, costing $199.99. AI
