Not every type of fitness equipment has hand pulse sensors
available.
Hand pulse sensors record the variation in resistance, which is
created by the pulsation of the blood flowing through the palms.
Movement on the handgrips, friction, moisture and perspiration
will influence the transmission. There are among people appreci-
able physiological differences in the characteristics of the resist-
ance change. For some people the resistance is to weak to even
be measured. In this case the computer will show no heart rate.
All these factors influence the measurement, which makes it
imprecise and it should only be used for orientation.
If the hands are dry at the beginning of the workout the hand
pulse sensors might not pick up a signal at all or register a faulty
one. Usually it is sufficient to moisten the palms to correct this.
The values that are measured and calculated here are not based
on medically valid measuring methods. The values therefore
might not be accurate. Please contact your physician for a medi-
cally valid measurement.
The heart rate measurement using the hand pulse sensors is
not fit for medical purposes!
