Introduction
1.2.
Heart Rate Monitoring This section provides basic concepts of heart rate monitoring so you can better understand how to use it to reach the fitness level you desire. 1.2.1. What is exercise intensity? Exercise intensity is simply a measure of how hard you are working at a given time during exercise. The ACSM, the world’s leading medical and scientific authority on sports medicine and fitness, recommends that every individual involved in an exercise program know how hard his/her body is working during exercise. Your heart provides key information for determining how intensely you are working during exercise. Your heart rate (how many times your heart beats per minute) is really an efficiency rating for your entire body. The number of times your heart beats during each minute of exercise is a measurement of the intensity of the exercise. If your heart rate is low, exercise intensity is low; if your heart rate is high, your exercise intensity is high. 1.2.2. What is maximum heart rate? Maximum Heart Rate (MHR) is the maximum attainable heart rate your body can reach before total exhaustion. True maximum heart rate is measured during a fatigue or “stress” test. This test must be done in a clinical setting and is not practical or accessible for most people. WARNING
The use of this formula assumes no underlying heart or respiratory disease or other condition, which could be adversely affected by exercise. Consult your doctor before using this chart!
Your maximum heart rate can be established with a high degree of accuracy using the following simple formula: Estimated Maximum Heart Rate = 220 minus your age. 18
Introduction If John is 35 years old, what is his estimated maximum heart rate? John’s estimated maximum heart rate is: 220 - 35 = 185
185 beats per minute is the estimated maximum number of times John’s heart can beat before his body would fatigue or “max out.” This number is extremely helpful because it indicates the absolute highest exercise intensity John can handle before his body wears out. The ACSM says that during exercise, John should keep his heart rate below his maximum so that he will not become exhausted and have to quit. In fact, the ACSM gives John a specific percentage range of his maximum heart rate to exercise in, known as his Target Heart Rate Zone.(THRZ). 1.2.3. Why should I monitor exercise intensity? Your heart is the most important muscle in your body and, like all muscles, must be exercised regularly to remain strong and efficient. According to fitness experts, exercise is more effective when you work out in a specific heart rate range or zone. This is referred to as your Target Heart Rate Zone (THRZ) and is reflected by the number of heart beats per minute. This zone can vary greatly depending on your age, fitness level and various other factors. If your heart rate is too low during exercise, your body reaps little or no benefit. This means you’re not likely to see the results you want, like weight loss or increased endurance. If your heart rate is too high during exercise, you may tire too quickly, become fatigued or even run the risk of injury. Monitoring exercise intensity helps you to stay at a level of exercise that allows you to accomplish your goals. In fact, the ACSM recommends that, in order to get the most benefit from your cardiovascular exercise, you should work within your THRZ for at least 20 to 60 minutes per workout, 3 to 5 times per week. Knowing your exercise intensity (THRZ) will allow you to work at the right level of exercise to accomplish this.
19
Introduction 1.2.4. How do I determine my Target Heart Rate Zone? Your THRZ represents the minimum and maximum number of times your heart should beat in one minute of exercise. The ACSM recommends that all individuals should work within a Target Heart Rate Zone of 60% to 85% of Maximum Heart Rate. This means that your heart rate during exercise should not fall below 60% or rise above 85% of your maximum heart rate. Let’s look at John from our earlier example. John is 35 years old, so his estimated maximum heart rate is 220 minus 35, or 185 beats per minute (bpm). The ACSM recommendation is that John should exercise between 60% and 85% of 185 beats per minute to stay in his THRZ. Let’s determine John’s THRZ: • John’s estimated maximum heart rate: 185 bpm • Lower target limit: 185 (MHR) X 0.6 111 bpm • Upper target limit: 185 (MHR) X 0.85 157 bpm • John’s target heart rate zone: 111-157 bpm 111-157 beats per minute is the range or zone for John’s heart rate during exercise in order to achieve his goals. If John is a beginning exerciser, he’ll want to stay at the low end of his THRZ. If John is a more advanced exerciser, he may want to work at the higher end of his THRZ to challenge himself more. The following list shows the different intensity levels within a target heart rate zone: • Beginner: 60% of MHR • Weight Loss: 75% of MHR • Aerobic: 85% of MHR
1.3.
Heart Rate Monitors Heart rate monitors are built into the treadmill’s pulse grips, and a wireless chest strap monitor is also available on residential models. Exercising too hard can put you at a risk for injury. A heart rate monitor reminds you of the safe and effective heart rate
20
Introduction intensity at which you should exercise and warns you if your workouts go too far. If you want to reach your exercise goals, it’s important to stay in your THRZ during workouts. A heart rate monitor provides a reminder of the intensity and quality of each workout session. Landice heart rate monitors are used to monitor your level of exercise intensity during workouts. Pulse meters have a high margin for error. Manual pulse measurements during exercise can result in errors as high as ±15 beats per minute, with the risk of potential error increasing as heart rate increases. 1.3.1. Wireless Chest Strap Monitoring System Note:
The wireless chest strap is only available on residential treadmill models. The Wireless Chest Strap transmitter works best against bare skin because sweat (salt water) is an electrical conductor. If you are having trouble getting an accurate pulse reading, try moistening the electrodes on the chest transmitter with water. Figure 1-2. Wireless Chest Strap Transmitter
Center the transmitter on the chest as high under the pectoral muscles (breasts) as possible. Tighten the strap so that the belt is as tight as possible without being uncomfortable.
