Heart Rate Monitor And Pedometer

Is walking, jogging or running your favorite form of exercise? If so, you should definitely have a heart rate monitor and pedometer. This device not only tracks how many steps you've traveled but also your heart rate. Keeping your heart rate in the target zone while working out is important for optimum results. Also if you are training for endurance or stamina these monitors can tell you when you are exceeding your target zone. They not only tell you when to speed up your workout intensity but also when to slow it down.

One top monitor with a pedometer built in is the Nike Triax Elite Heart Rate Monitor Speed Distance Data Watch. This particular monitor costs approximately $350 but you may find it on sale if you do some online comparison shopping. This digital watch features a display with easy to read cardiovascular data. You also get a foot mounted monitor for measuring distance and speed. One feature you're sure to like is the target training zone feature, which allows you to program your preferred training zones. If you are outside of your designated workout zone the monitor will alert you.

With this particular monitor pedometer combo you get digital transmission that minimizes cross communication from other devices. Not only that, but you can even upload and download your data and setting to and from your computer. The software that comes with this monitor helps you design customized fitness plans, keep track of your workouts, set goals for yourself and analyze your progress. Water resistant to 165 feet, this monitor features stainless steel and an electrolite backlighting feature.

While Nike isn't the only company that makes a heart rate monitor and pedometer in one, they are certainly one of the most high profile companies. You can also find these devices sold by manufacturers like Bodytronics, Sportline and Medisana just to name a few. While you can purchase these devices in many fitness supply stores you may be better off to shop online because of the wide selection and money saving deals available. The Internet makes it easy to shop for your fitness equipment and accessories because stores and merchandise can be compared in minutes with a few clicks of the mouse.
