FINDING YOUR TARGET HEART RATE ZONE
Losing weight and managing to keep it off is a lot easier when you exercise in your target heart rate zone.
To get the most out of any exercise program, you should target 55% to 85% of your maximum heart rate
depending on your fitness level and objectives.
Fat Burning Zone: 55% - 65% of maximum heart rate.
This zone is ideal for fitness beginners on a low to moderate intensity program. Exercising in this zone
reduces blood pressure and cholesterol and nearly all the calories burned are fats.
Cardio Zone: 65% - 75% of maximum heart rate.
Reaching this zone requires more intense aerobic activity and is perfect for fitness enthusiasts working to
burn maximum calories from fat and carbohydrates.
Endurance Zone: 75% - 85% of maximum heart rate.
Exercising in the Endurance Zone is generally recommended for athletes in training. Cardiovascular
strengthening, increased metabolism and elevated caloric burn are the primary benefits.
SETTING HEART RATE TARGET ZONE AND USER PROFILE
The Sportline 925 Solo Heart Rate Watch allows you to set a Target Heart Rate Zone for targeted exercise.
