Planning
• Base your training and various exercise sessions on
heart rate.
Setting pace and controlling intensity
• Your heart rate is an accurate measure of exercise
intensity - it tells you how hard you are working. Use
heart rate to set a pace that you are able to maintain.
Keeping safe
• Monitor your heart rate during exercise to keep yourself
from pushing too hard or overtraining.
Checking progress
• Your heart rate allows you to objectively measure
improvements in your fi tness level. For a particular
speed and time/distance, your heart rate should
decrease with improvements in your fi tness.
Adapting to environment
• Your heart rate responds to internal and
external factors acting on your body (for
example, stress, lack of sleep, altitude
and temperature). Using your running
computer will help ensure a quality
workout in varying conditions.
Read this manual carefully to familiarize
yourself with your running computer. This
manual also contains a section about
maintenance.
Have success and fun using your running
computer!
