A Strapless heart ratemonitor operates without the use of a chest strap. You simply place two fingersover the face of the watch for 4-6 seconds and receive your heart rate reading. Q: What does ECG Accurate mean? A: An electrocardiogram, or ECG, is a measure of the electrical activityof the heart. This electrical activity regulates the contraction of the heart,so the exact heart rate and rhythm can be determined from an ECG. Q: Is a Strapless heart rate monitor asaccurate as a Wireless heart rate monitor? A: Reebok Strapless technology gives you ECG accurate heart ratereadings. Simply place 2 fingers over the 2 sensors any time you want to checkyour heart rate. Q: What is the difference between a heartrate and a pulse rate? A: Heart rate is the rate of heart contractions over a given timeperiod, usually defined in beats per minute. A pulse can be defined as therhythmical dilation of a vessel produced by the increased volume of bloodforced into the vessel by the contraction of the heart. The pulse can be feltat many different points on the body, with the wrist and neck among the mosteasily accessible. The heart rate is usually measured by a sensing device suchas electrodes that pick up the electrical activity of the heart, whichregulates contractions, The pulse rate is commonly measured by lightly touchingone’s fingers over an artery to count the rate of pulsation. There are certainsituations, such as an irregular heartbeat or a premature beat, where a heartcontraction will not force out enough blood to be measured as a pulse. Only inthese cases, the pulse rate will be different from the heart rate. Q: How do I get my heart rate reading? A: Wireless Heart Rate Monitor (with Chest Belt) 1. Press and hold themode button (lower left button) until the heart symbol appears. This willengage heart rate mode. 2. Wet the back of thechest belt with water or saliva and place belt around body. 3.

A: A strapless heart rate monitor is ECG accurate because it picks upthe electrical impulses produced by the heart. A pulse sensor detects bloodflow in the extremities and is adversely affected by light and motion. Thiscauses highly inaccurate readings. Q: My Heart Rate Monitor is not workingcorrectly.

A: In order to get fit, lose weight, take part in sport or for a healthylifestyle, a Heart Rate Monitor is the perfect partner. It is not necessary tofeel totally exhausted at the end of each exercise session and indeed, this cancause more harm than good. To benefit from exercise the three elements offrequency, intensity and time should be in balance. It was always possible tobalance frequency and time but now, with a Heart Rate Monitor, intensity canalso be controlled to produce the desired results and fitness goals. Q: How do I Train with a Heart Rate Monitor A: Warm up and Cool Down Always do a slow warm-up of 5-10 minutes followed by some gently stretching andthen gradually climb up to the pre-set target zone. End every workout with a5-10 minute cool down, again followed by the same gently stretching. Theimportance of this cannot be over emphasized. Studies have shown that peoplewho warm up and cool down adequately have fewer athletic injuries. Type of Exercise Choose activities that use large muscle groups and which are continuous in nature.Some good examples are walking, swimming, running, aerobic dance, stairclimbing machines, ski machines, treadmills, cycling or exercise bikes. Feelfree to include more than one activity-cycle one day, swim the next and doaerobics on the third. This is called Cross Training and helps exercise allmuscle groups, reduces boredom and keeps motivation high. Frequency of Exercise Exercise in the target range that you have set at least 3-5 times per week,with no more than 48 hours between sessions. Even on “rest days” gentlyexercise such as a leisurely walk can be beneficial. Intensity of Exercise An exercise intensity zone should be selected which is within knowncapabilities and where consistency can be achieved. Studies show that people,who exercise at too high an intensity, especially in the initial stages oftheir program, drop out sooner, have more injuries and tend to develop anegative impression towards exercise in general. If necessary, start in a lowexercise intensity zone and build up. Time Exercising Aim for 20-60 minutes of continuous exercise in the chosen target zone eachsession. If 20 minutes constant exercise is not initially achievable, then workup to it slowly and gradually. Warning Before any exercise program is initiated, an assessment of fitness levelsshould be undertaken by a doctor to ensure personal safety. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The small print.......
