Heart Rate Monitor
Must be ANT+ and Polar Compatible
 
At SSF, you will learn why Heart rate monitors are important and we will help you to establish HeartZones based off of your individual fitness. If you take the Beginner or Fitness Cycle Program we do not require but highly recommended that all participants use a Heart rate monitor as often as they can. If you participate in the Performance Program, we require a Heart rate Monitor. We believe that Heart rate monitors are a helpful accessory for aerobic conditioning, learning more about how your body responds to physical stress and overload. and establishing your personal HeartZones. From beginners to the advanced athlete, HRM can be the missing link to you reaching your fitness and performance goals and getting results. 

The American Heart Association explains that close monitoring of your heart rate during exercise is the key not only to knowing that you're working out strenuously enough, but whether you're improving your fitness over time. While there are other means of judging the effectiveness of your workout, heart rate monitoring is a very reliable method. It provides objective data, and can keep you on track for success.
