EXAMPLE USEAGE
Below we are going to provide an example of using the heart rate monitor to give
you ideas of how you could use the heart rate monitor.
Example:
34 years old female, wants to increase her top end fitness with a fast 20 minute run.
(Read the CSX Heart Rate Monitor Training eBook for training ideas)
Setup the initial settings of the heart rate monitor using Pro User Level as
outlined in the
SETUP
instructions.
We are going to set the Countdown Timer for 10minutes, after 10 minutes of running
in one direction the alarm will beep and the runner can turn around and run back to
the starting point to complete a 20 minute run.
To ensure we are running at a fast pace and to increase our top end fitness we are
going to use training zone 3. You could even use the custom zone to make fine
adjustments to the training zone suitable to your fitness level.
Before we begin running we will also start the exercise timer in heart rate mode so
that we also store data in the memory to recall after we complete the run.
Here are the steps to setup the heart rate monitor before we run:
SETUP THE COUNTDOWN TIMER
Press the MODE button repeatedly until you are in the countdown mode (indicated
by “D-TMR”)
Set countdown to 10 minutes
Press and hold the SET button for approx. 3 seconds
The hours will flash, set the hours to zero using the SEL
button. Press the SET button to confirm, the minutes
will flash
Press the SEL button to set 10 minutes
Press the MODE button to save the settings
The countdown timer is now ready,
we will not start the countdown yet until the rest
of the heart rate monitor is configured for our run
.
