The Heart Rate Monitor should be seen from its perspective as a piece of Sports, and not Medical equipment.

Training

HRMs and training zones should be used only as a rough guide; listening to your body is best.

Here are some facts to clear the myth that the Chinese are vegetarians on a high carb diet. We eat rice as our staple diet, + large amounts of pork, chicken & fish. But I don't think we can challenge the Sumo wrestlers who consume about 18,500 Calories a day. A vegetarian diet is adhered to only for...
