7.1 INFORMATION ON HEART RATE

The heart rate (HR) is stated in beats per minute.
Maximum heart rate
The maximum heart rate (HR max.) is the maximum possible
rate at which your heart beats when exploiting your physical
performance completely. Your personal HR max. varies with your
age, gender, ability to perform, performance related to your type
of sport and your physical fitness. We recommend undertaking
this test with a doctor and repeating it regularly.
The HR max. is approximated automatically in the ONYX PRO
using the following mathematical equation:
Men:
210 – "half age" – (0.11 x personal weight in kg) +4
Women:
210 – "half age" – (0.11 x personal weight in kg)
The right training pulse
The training zone is the range in which the heart rate should beat
during effective and targeted training.
Please note that general exercise plans can never address perso-
nal issues! Therefore really ideal training can only be designed by
a well educated trainer who knows you personally.
