| Do you want to know if the exercise you're doing is particularly effective in reaching your fitness goals? Are you improving your workout, or just coasting along? Heart rate monitors measure your heart's beats per minute (BPM) and are commonly used to indicate its response to exercise.
Heart rate monitors can be useful tools for a variety of reasons - they can be used to measure exercise intensity, calories burned, distance travelled, speed achieved and GPS location as well as many other interesting statistics. Athletes use them extensively for training and exercise enthusiasts can use them to optimise their workout. |
