Five Great Reasons to Wear a Heart Rate Monitor

Improve Your Health

You don’t have to be a serious athlete in training to benefit from wearing a heart rate monitor when you exercise.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend that adults should exercise at moderate intensity (50–70 percent of maximum heart rate) for at least 30 minutes five days a week, or at a vigorous intensity (70–85 percent of maximum heart rate) for 20 minutes three days a week.
