INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchasing the HR102 Basic Heart Rate
Monitor.
The HR102 is a very useful healthcare product to help you achieve and
maintain your optimum exercise zone by monitoring your heart rate in
working out.
The HR102 comes with a heart rate transmitter and a receiver watch complete

KNOW YOUR DATA
It is important you know your maximum heart rate (MHR), training
zone, upper heart rate limit and lower heart rate limit before you begin.
They help you achieve the maximum health benefits out of your workout.
MHR is expressed in beats per minute. You can get your MHR from a
MHR test. Or you can estimate it using the following formulae:
Men 220 - age = MHR
Women 230 - age = MHR
There are several training zones that bear specific results in your fitness
program. The most popular zones range between 50% to 80% of your
maximum great rate. This is where you achieve cardiovascular benefits,
burn fat, and become fitter. When programming your watch, the lowest
% of the zone you choose becomes your lower heart rate limit and the
highest % becomes the upper heart rate limit.
