When you formally start training for a race or marathon, you begin equipping yourself with the material to do it as well as possible: the type of clothing, suitable shoes, energy bars… and among all of this, the heart rate monitor or pulsometer. Many people buy one and do not know why and for what purpose they have it. Here are some reasons:

• You will know the number of times your heart beats, a value related to the intensity of the training: if you can maintain the training intensity proposed in your plan, you will have more successful results.
• You will be able to design a training program based on your heart capacity and aimed at your predominant metabolism, which can be aerobic or anaerobic.
• You will determine target intensity levels to train the contractile capacity of muscles according to the predominant type of muscle fiber: slow or fast twitch.
• You can determine if you are overtrained.
• You will follow the progress of your training: when you are well trained, the heart rate decreases at rest.

Do you have a heart rate monitor? Ask a professional to show you how to get the most out of it. If you don’t, what are you waiting for?
