Remote Heart Rate Monitor
MonitoringyourHeartRateisoneofthebestprocedurestocontroltheintensityofyourexercise.TheConsolecanread
telemetryHRsignalsfromaHeartRateChestStrapTransmitterthatoperatesinthe4.5kHz-5.5kHzrange.
Note:TheheartratecheststrapmustbeanuncodedheartratestrapfromPolarElectrooranuncodedPOLAR
com-
patiblemodel.(CodedPOLAR
heart rate straps such as POLAR
OwnCode
chest straps will not work with
thisequipment.)
If you have a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device, consult your doctor before using a wireless
chest strap or other telemetric heart rate monitor.
Heart Rate Calculations
Yourmaximumheartrateusuallydecreasesfrom220BeatsPerMinute(BPM)inchildhoodtoapproximately160BPMby
age60.Thisfallinheartrateisusuallylinear,decreasingbyapproximatelyoneBPMforeachyear.Thereisnoindication
thattraininginuencesthedecreaseinmaximumheartrate.Individualsofthesameagecouldhavedifferentmaximum
heartrates.Itismoreaccuratetondthisvaluebycompletingastresstestthanbyusinganagerelatedformula.
Yourat-restheartrateisinuencedbyendurancetraining.Thetypicaladulthasanat-restheartrateofapproximately72
BPM, where as highly trained runners may have readings of 40 BPM or lower.
TheHeartRatetableisanestimateofwhatHeartRateZone(HRZ)iseffectivetoburnfatandimproveyourcardiovas-
cular system. Physical conditions vary, therefore your individual HRZ could be several beats higher or lower than what is
shown.
Themostefcientproceduretoburnfatduringexerciseistostartataslowpaceandgraduallyincreaseyourintensityun-
tilyourheartratereachesbetween60–85%ofyourmaximumheartrate.Continueatthatpace,keepingyourheartrate
in that target zone for over 20 minutes. The longer you maintain your target heart rate, the more fat your body will burn.
The graph is a brief guideline, describing the generally suggested target heart rates based on age. As noted above, your
optimal target rate may be higher or lower. Consult your physician for your individual target heart rate zone.
Note:Aswithallexercisesandtnessregimens,alwaysuseyourbestjudgmentwhenyouincreaseyourexercise
time or intensity.
