When you exercise, the chest belt picks up your
heartbeat and sends it to the watch. Now you can view
your heart rate and start monitoring your performance
based on your heart rate readings. As you get tter,
your heart will need to do less work and the speed of
your heart rate will decrease. The reason for this is as
follows:
Your heart pumps blood to your lungs to obtain
oxygen. Then, the oxygen rich blood will travel to
your muscles. The oxygen is used as fuel and the
blood leaves the muscles and returns to the lungs to
begin the process again. As you get t, your heart is
able to pump more blood with every beat. As a result,
your heart doesn’t have to beat as often to get the
necessary oxygen to your muscles.
