Heart rate training

This section is just a general overview of training with heart rate data. For more complete

information, there are books and websites with more in-depth information.

Generally, the heart rate increases during exercise, getting higher in conjunction with the

intensity of the workout. Measurement the rate of your heart beat is a good indicator of

the intensity of your workout. By setting target HR (heart rate) zones and sticking to pre-

set exercises, you will be able to work out more efficiently. Before beginning a training

program, be sure to first consult a medical specialist or sports trainer.

1. Improving general fitness

Bicycling is one of the best activities to improve your general fitness. To improve your

overall fitness through bicycling, set a target heart rate zone from between 30% and 70%

of your maximum HR, depending on your physical strength. For best results, exercise

consistently in this zone for periods of at least 20-30 minutes, 3 or more times a week.

To obtain your target zone, see the table below, which illustrates the correlation be-

tween heart rate and training level. For beginners, it is recommended to start with the

level of 30% of your max. From this point, gradually increase the level according to

your fitness level and experience. Training at levels over 70% of your HR max will

focus more on anaerobic exercise, and less on aerobic exercise. Weight loss usually

occurs through longer rides (over 1 hour) at lower HR levels.

Setting the target heart rate zone

You can select the target heart rate zone, and change the upper/lower limit.

* Stop measurement and perform the resetting operation (page 17) before you can

change the target heart rate zone. Unless you perform the resetting operation, “DATA

RESET” appears on the screen, preventing from changing the target heart rate zones.

* For details of the target zone, see “Use of the target zone” (page 37).

1. Press the MENU button in the measurement screen to

switch to the menu top screen.

Switch to the HR.ZOne screen using the M1/+ and M2/-

justed automatically to the lower limit + 1 when the entered lower limit exceeds the

upper limit. In case of the upper limit, vice versa, the lower limit is adjusted in the

same way.

* The upper limit is displayed with the digit in a small numeric when it exceeds 199.
