Maximum heart rate value (HRmax)

HRmax is used to estimate energy expenditure. HRmax is the highest number of heartbeats per minute during maximum physical exertion. HRmax is also useful when determining exercise intensity. The most accurate method for determining your individual HRmax is to perform a maximal exercise stress test in a laboratory.

Heart rate value in a sitting position (HRsit)

HRsit is used to estimate energy expenditure. To determine your HRsit easily, wear your transmitter, sit down and do not engage in any physical activity. After two or three minutes, press the Red button in Time mode to view your heart rate. This is your HRsit.

To calculate your HRsit, more precisely, repeat the procedure several times and calculate your average.
