This product is interesting for its simple handling and its willingness to keep you motivated in race. So, with this interesting piece of equipment you will have functions such as calorie expenditure, OwnZone, and coded transmission. How? Here we explain everything:

This new heart rate monitor is an economical and professional option for runners. It offers complete and accurate information to the runner based on the 3D concept: speed, distance and heart rate monitoring. In addition to these three parameters, the new heart rate monitor offers many other functions, such as a calorie burned monitoring function and a recovery period indicator.

Thanks to its Cardio function, the runner will have continuous HR monitoring with the precision of an ECG (electrocardiogram). This HR display can be shown in bpm and in % of HRmax.

Another highlight is its Ownzone function that provides the athlete with the automatic determination of a personalized target zone. Thus, the heart rate target zone offers the possibility of regulating a manual target zone, and the setting of the limits can also be done in bpm and % of HRmax.

And, of course, it is interesting to mention the Owncal function that allows you to count the calories burned during exercise. This function displays your energy consumption during physical activity, as well as the cumulative calories so far. In this way, you can set daily and weekly exercise goals in terms of calorie consumption with the OwnCal function, and then monitor the cumulative amount of calories consumed during a week or an exercise session.

In addition, and thanks to the large memory of this heart rate monitor, the runner will be able to obtain detailed data for each exercise session and will also have at his disposal

stopwatch, 2 timers, countdown timer and automatic backlighting, which allows the display to light up with each function activated during exercise. It also allows you to lock the buttons to avoid accidentally turning it on:
