Alternative methods are measurement on the finger, via an app or with the help of a pulse monitor. Instead of buying a blood pressure monitor, you can use a pulse monitor. This is particularly suitable for athletes and can be connected to apps via the Android or iOS operating system.
It can be integrated into a watch so that it does not interfere with your running. More broadly, there are also mobile phone apps that measure data such as blood pressure, heart rate, pulse, lung capacity, and so on. Likewise, the pulse value can be checked manually using the index, middle and ring fingers or on the wrist.
