USER PROFILE
To access the full benefits of using the VIBRA-TRAINER / VIBRATRAINER PRO sports watch, set up your user profile before you exercise with the watch. This will automatically generate a fitness index, and allows you to track your progress over time. With the user profile, you can enter information about yourself to help determine your proper fitness index level (described on page 8). The user profile includes the following metrics: sex, age, weight (kg or lbs), height (feet / inches, or centimeters), and activity level. The activity level is based on your own self-assessment of the amount of exercise you regularly perform. Activity level 0 Description Low You do not usually participate in programmed recreation sports or exercise. Medium You are engaged in modest physical activity (such as golfing, horseback riding, table tennis, calisthenics, bowling, weight lifting, yard work, or gymnastics) two or three times a week totaling one hour per week. This automatically sets your personal upper and lower heart rate limits, which are monitored as you exercise. Alternatively, you can calculate your own heart rate limits following the instructions below: Sex Men Women
MHR 220 age = MHR 230 age = MHR
Lower limit
MHR x (lower training zone %)
Upper limit
MHR x (upper training zone %)
TRAINING ZONES There are three training zones, as described below. [. . . ] When replacing batteries, use new batteries as specified in this user manual.
