5.1 INFORMATION ON HEART RATE
We recommend undertaking this test with a doctor and repeating
it regularly.
The HR max. is approximated automatically in the ONYX CLASSIC
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 move
during effective and targeted training. In your ONYX CLASSIC you
can choose between the Fatburner Zone (FAT) and the Fitness
Zone (FIT) depending on your personal objectives. In addition, you
are able to determine your own zone limits (OWN) by manually
setting the upper and lower limits of your watch. You can find
more information about this in Chapter 3.1 "USER" (user settings).
1. FAT (Fatburner Zone):
approx. 55–70 % of the max. HR
Aimed at: Training for beginners or those starting again.
When training at a lower intensity and therefore for a longer
period, in percentage terms more fat that carbohydrates are
used to provide energy. People who primarily want to reduce
their weight and burn fat should therefore train in this range.
A training time of 45-90 min. is recommended.
