TRAINING INFORMATION
HOW THE HEART RATE MONITOR HELPS YOU
A heart rate monitor is the most important tool in cardiovascular
health and an ideal training partner. It enables you to see and
monitor results. This helps you assess your past performance,
maximise your work out and adapt your future exercise program
to achieve your desired goals in a safer and more effective way.
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 fitter, 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 fit, 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.
