I am 'on tour', so I had my Polar watch that I ordered through my Michelle, Bridges, 12 Week, Body, Transformation, membership discount, sent ahead to my youngest daughter’s home which I have just arrived at. .It was here, waiting for me

Because. I am dyslectic and my husband has frontal lobe brain degeneration, neither of us can work out how to set up these complex function digital heart rate monitor and exercise session, calorie counting, watches. Therefore, I took it to Rebel Sports Store, told them I have been a good customer in the past and asked for help to set my new watch up. They did a total set up for me and showed me how to use it. :-).

The watch had been pre set to a 165 suggested top pulse rate and as I am 63 and lol, did not want to have to get life insurance quote. and upgrades before I worked out, I had the gentleman who was helping me at Rebel Sport reprogram my Polar watch to show 130 as my top recommended pulse rate as I do have regurgitating heart valves, lung scaring and I am sixty three. None of those three reasons are excuses not to exercise but they are examples of why you do need to have a medical check up before exercising and you should find out what your recommended top pulse rate is, and make sure you do not exceed this.  I am all for becoming fitter, not skinnier at any cost.

Here is a link to the suggested Heart Rate Training Zones, if you know your resting heart rate and your suggested top heart rate.

I think this wanting to be fitter, not just skinnier, is why I love the title of the 12 week body transformation. J, the emphasis is on a healthy transformation, not a weight loss, the difference is clear in my mind as I do not want to lose muscle and bone density in order to increase the results on the scales.

 

Top marks to Rebel Sports store, for customer service over and above usual and for a fast service from Polar.

Rebel Sports was very impressed with my FT4, they felt it was better looking that the FT4 they have in the stores, (so do I :-) ) and they said it was the best choice for me, than my origina, more expencive and complex function, Polar, Sports watch as this one was eary to view the training and calories achieved, but was not going to be too complicated for me to be able to use.
