You
have
just purchased the essential equipment
for scientific training based on today’s most
a d v a n c e d a t h l e t i c c o n c e p t s - - t h e P o l a r S p o r t
Tester Heart Rate Monitor. Now, with the most
a c c u r a t e , s o p h i s t i c a t e d p e r f o r m a n c e m o n i t o r
available, you are ready to control
your training to
reach your fullest competitive potential.
Modern athletic training, designed to eliminate
hit-or-miss activity and to optimize the time spent,
requires precise measurements. The Polar Sport
Tester is the preffered measuring technology used
by winning world-class International teams in
track and field, cross-country skiing, bicycling,
triathlon, swimming, and other events.
For today’s competitive athlete, a carefully
planned personal training program includes, of
course, measuring of time: intervals, intermediate
and lap times, etc. But added to these now are
critical measurements related to testing of
baseline physiological functions such as:
l
Heart rate
l
Efficiency in oxygen use (maximal aerobic
capacity V02 max)
l
Accumulation of lactic acid (anaerobic
threshold AT)
When these internal stresses are accurately
measured, areas for improvement can be
identified and this allows for a planned approach
to ovecroming weaknesses through controlled
uses of intensity, duration and frequency in
training. For modern interval training, stress levels
(work intensity) and recovery levels can be
predetermined so you can reach your peak in time
for competition, and avoid injury through
overstress.
