OwnZone ensures that you exercise within safe limits, and makes exercising easier and more enjoyable. OwnZone is based on measuring changes in heart rate variability.
16 Determining Your OwnZone Heart Rate Limits Find your OwnZone limits in 1-5 minutes during a warm up period by cycling or walking/jogging. You should start exercising gently at a light intensity and gradually increase intensity to raise heart rate. Before you start, make sure that, • Yourusersettingsarecorrect.
