Planning
•Base your training and various exercise sessions on heart rate.
Setting pace and controlling intensity
•Your heart rate is an accurate measure of exercise intensity - it tells you how hard you are working. Use heart rate to set a pace that you are able to maintain.
Keeping safe
•Monitor your heart rate during exercise to keep yourself from pushing too hard or overtraining.
Checking progress
•Your heart rate allows you to objectively measure improvements in your fitness level. For a particular speed and time/distance, your heart rate should decrease with improvements in your fitness.
Adapting to environment
•Your heart rate responds to internal and external factors acting on your body (for example, stress, lack of sleep, altitude and temperature). Using your running computer will help ensure a quality workout in varying conditions.
Read this manual carefully to familiarize yourself with your running computer. This manual also contains a section about maintenance.
