WHY HEART RATE ?

Whatever your interest in equine activities, there is no more reliable measure of a horse's biological condition than heart rate.

A continuous measure of a horse's heart rate can help you:

• Design an exercise or training program which is safe, reliable and appropriate for your discipline
• Measure how your horse is responding to exercise or training
• Monitor your horse's recovery from exercise or injury
• Measure a vital indicator of your horse's general health

Polar Equine Heart Rate Monitors continuously measure a horse's heart rate via an electrical impulse. The heart rate of your horse is displayed on the screen of a 'watch' receiver worn by the rider or attached to the sulky. The Polar Equine Heart Rate Monitors are recognized world wide for their accuracy and reliability.

The chart "Heart Rate zones" offers a guide to the heart rate level or zone best suited to the type of activity the horse is undertaking.

Polar offers a wide range of monitors for all equine disciplines. Polar Equine Heart Rate Monitors are suitable for all users, from those involved in competition, high performance and training, to those concerned with the general health and well being of their horse.

Polar Equine Heart Rate Monitors eliminate the inconvenience of the veterinarian's stethoscope and provide an objective measure of a horse's state of health. They are an essential complement to the horsemanship that leads to a successful and rewarding relationship between horse, rider or trainer.
