Measurement via chest strap (optional): Heart rate measurement takes
place through sensors integrated in the chest strap . There is a wireless signal
to a receiver in the computer . The chest strap has to be worn correctly and
the sensors may need to be moistened [2] . This measurement is constant and
accurate .

Measurement via hand pulse sensors: Sensors to
record heart rate from the palms are located on the
handlebars . For recording to take place both palms
have to be in contact with the sensors simultane-
ously [1] .
All commonly used analog chest straps, with a
frequency of 5,4 – 5,7 Hz can be used .
Hand pulse sensor record the variation in resistance which
is created by the pulsation of the blood flowing through
the palms. Movement on the hand grips, friction, moisture
and perspiration will influence the transmission. There are among
people appreciable physiological differences in the characteris-
tics of the resistance change. For some people the resistance is to
weak to even be measured. In this case the computer will show
no heart rate.
All these factors influence the measurement, which makes it
imprecise and it should only be used for orientation.
If the hands are dry at the beginning of the workout the hand
pulse sensors might not pick up a signal at all or register a faulty
one. Usually it is sufficient to moisten the palms to correct this.
Electromagnetic influence factors
All electronic devises such as, T. V., computer etc. are surrounded
by electromagnetic fields or respectively use wireless transmis-
sion like a cordless telephone. The receiver in the computer can
only conditionally differentiate between a "good" and a "bad"
signal. Interfering signals from another source can disturb the
recording of the heart rate. Your exercise equipment should be
placed as far away from these interfering devices as possible.
Both measurement methods are not fit for medical purposes!
If you wear a pacemaker please check with your physician if a
chest strap should be used.
