G ENERAL I NFORMATION FOR T RAINING

This heart rate monitor serves to measure the human pulse. By means of various settings, you can support your individual training program and monitor your pulse. You should monitor your pulse during exercise because you should prevent your heart from excessive strain on the one hand and on the other in order to achieve the optimal training results. The table provides you with some information on the selection of your training zone. The maximum heart rate reduces with advancing age. Information on the training heart rate must therefore always be in relation to the maximum heart rate. The following rule of thumb helps to identify the maximum heart rate:

220 - age = maximum heart rate

The following example applies to a 40-year-old person: 220-40 = 180
