🚀 New Launches
Amazfit Helio Strap Pro proves HYROX training needs more than a wrist: distributed core and arm sensors measure power and movement forces that smartwatches like the Garmin Fenix 8 Pro and Coros Pace 3 weren’t designed to capture.
Marty’s Take:
The waist-mounted motion sensor is the real story here — HYROX is just the hook. Amazfit is betting that distributed body sensors will replace single-device wearables for serious training. Chest straps gave us better HR; the Amazfit Helio Strap Pro adds core stability data wrist trackers can’t touch. Watch for Garmin and Wahoo to follow — the best fitness trackers of 2027 will come in kits, not single devices.
