Introduction
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

Heart Rate Monitors
Heart rate monitors are built into the treadmill's pulse grips, and
a Bluetooth wireless chest strap monitor is also included.
Exercising too hard can put you at a risk for injury. A heart rate
monitor reminds you of the safe and effective heart rate
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. Bluetooth Wireless Chest Strap Monitoring System
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.
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.
After the wireless chest strap is correctly fitted on the person
working out, it must be connected to the console.
