March 12th, 2010
im young and have a fast rested heart rate but when i workout on the cardio machines my pulse goes up to 165 bpm and i still dont feel out of breathe, its only untill i get to 170+ i start feeling the need to pant.my question is : how accurate are the heart rate sensors? thanks
It varies between different brands of equipment, but some are very accurate, and some are way off. You might want to think about buying your own individual pulse rate sensor if you want a more accurate reading.
