A continuous heart rate monitor constantly measures the heart rate. Typically, these monitors have a chest strap that transmits the heart rate to a wrist watch continuously over the period of workout.

A non-continuous monitor is a monitor that has to be told to measure the heart rate. These monitors are typically watches without a chest strap. The user measures the heart rate by pushing on the watch so that firm contact is made with the user's pulse. The watch then displays the heart rate while the user pushes on the watch.
