This heart rate monitor serves to measure the human pulse. By
means of various settings, you can support your individual training
program and monitor your pulse. You should monitor your pulse
during exercise because you should prevent your heart from exces-
sive strain on the one hand and on the other in order to achieve the
optimal training results. The table provides you with some informa-
tion on the selection of your training zone. The maximum heart rate
reduces with advancing age. Information on the training heart rate
must therefore always be in relation to the maximum heart rate. The
following rule of thumb helps to identify the maximum heart rate:
220 - age = maximum heart rate
The following example applies to a 40-year-old person: 220-40 = 180
