Optimising Training Effect With the RS800

When you train or workout you are over stressing your body. After training your body enters a recovery phase during which it over-compensates for the training, resulting in improved strength and fitness - this damage and repair cycle is called training effect. If you train too hard and / or too often you don´t allow your body sufficient time to recover in between training sessions, the compound result can be a negative gain.

By knowing your state of recovery from previous training sessions you can determine how hard, how long or whether to train at all on any particular day.

The unique package of features in the RS800 enables you to monitor your recovery, compare exertion levels (even across different sports) as well as find the optimal training intensity for your current physical state.
