The Importance of Heartrate
Your heart is the most important muscle in your body. In fact, it serves as
a barometer for the rest of your body, telling you how hard you are
exercising.
Wireless Heart Rate Monitors measure your cardiovascular and
physiological stress during your training session. They provide you with an
accurate gauge of the intensity of an exercise.
The intensity of any exercise is reflected in your heart rate. The harder
you exercise, the higher the heart rate. Because hard work alone does not
guarantee better results, it is important to exercise within your personal
Target
Heart Rate Zone.
HOW DO THE WIRELESS HEART RATE MONITORS
WORK?
Wireless Heart Rate Monitors measure the electrical frequency of your
heart, the number of beats per minute at which your heart is operating. In
contrast, pulse meters (photo-reflectance models) use sensors to measure the
mechanical pulse of blood flow through your capillaries, which is then
converted into a beat-per-minute readout. Our Wireless Heart Rate Monitors are
so accurate that readings obtained simultaneously by these monitors and by
electrocardiogram (ECG) monitors are almost identical. This is not true for
photo-reflectance monitors.
Wireless Heart Rate Monitors consist of a transmitter and a wrist
receiver
The comfortable chest belt transmitter picks up the electrical pulse from
your heart and transmits it to the wrist receiver. Wireless transmission
ensures complete freedom of movement while cycling or during other exercise.
The realtime heart rate display allows you to undertake a scientific training
program at precise, predetermined intensities.
