HEART RATE
Knowing how hard to work is important. The more riders challenge themselves by increasing the force and
velocity on the bike, the higher the power output. More power equates to more energy expended and more
calories burned. However, there is a fine line between training too vigorously resulting in premature
burnout and training at low intensity and not making any significant physical changes. Monitoring
intensity through heart-rate tracking and/or perceived exertion helps ensure the best training levels for
the cyclist. Heart-rate monitoring is an important part of training. A heart-rate monitor serves as a guide
to make sure participants train in conjunction with their indoor cycling power goals and target heart
rate. Although it is beneficial to use a heart-rate monitor, it is not a requirement in the Keiser M3/M3i
Indoor Cycling program. Finding one’s pulse and counting it manually is an adequate measure of
heart rate.
