Timex T5J031 Unisex Digital Fitness Heart Rate Monitor Watch |
In human and veterinary medicine, physical activity includes a set of body movements which resulted in a higher energy expenditure to basal metabolic rate. [2] It is sometimes used synonymously with physical exercise, which is a form of activity planned and repetitive physical in order to improve or maintain one or more aspects of fitness. [3] Physical activity performed by human beings over a period longer than 30 minutes to more than 3 times per week usually occurs in the work or work and in their leisure time. This increases energy consumption considerably and the resting metabolic rate, ie, physical activity burns calories. Has recently been reported that obese school longer watch television and perform activities that are less intense and shorter than normal children. It has also been demonstrated in obese schoolchildren low REE and low levels of physical activity, [4] which includes sport and physical education. Physical activity not only increases the calorie intake but also metabolism, which can remain elevated after 30 minutes of moderate physical activity to finish. The basal metabolic rate can increase by 10% for 48 hours after physical activity. Moderate physical activity does not increase the appetite, even decrease. Research indicates that the decrease in appetite after physical activity is greater in individuals who are obese than in those with ideal body weight. A reduction of calories in the diet along with physical activity can cause a loss of 98% body fat, whereas if only a reduction of calories in the diet lost 25% of lean body mass, ie muscle and less than 75% of the fat and improves the quality of life. By contrast, abuse of physical activity without planning and monitoring can be destructive. Since premature cell aging, emotional and physical, a weakened immune system among others. The practice of physical activity in a systematic and regular basis must be taken as a significant element in the prevention, development and rehabilitation of health, improve body position for the lumbar muscle strengthening, prevention of diseases such as diabetes, hypertension pressure, osteoporosis, colon cancer, back pain, etc. . [1] At the organizational level: increased flexibility and joint mobility. Improved coordination, skill and resilience. Gain muscle which results in increased metabolism, which in turn causes a decrease in body fat (prevention of obesity and its consequences). Increased body fatigue (tiredness). At heart, there was an increase of organic resistance, improved circulation, regulation of heart rate and blood pressure decrease. [1]. In the lungs, can see improvement in lung capacity and therefore oxygenation. Boosting capacity, the operation of alveoli and exchange blood pressure, improves the efficiency of the heart and decreases the risk of cardiac arrhythmia (irregular heart rhythm). A metabolic rate, decreases the production of lactic acid, triglycerides, cholesterol and LDL (bad cholesterol), helps to reduce and maintain a healthy body weight normalizes glucose tolerance (sugar), increased capacity utilization fat as an energy source, consumption of calories, the concentration of HDL (good cholesterol) and improves the functioning of insulin. A neuro-endocrine level: decreased production of epinephrine (catecholamines), increased sweat production, tolerance to hot environments and the production of endorphins (hormone linked to the feeling of being). Musculoskeletal level: it increases the strength, the number of endings in skeletal muscle blood, improves the structure, function and stability of ligaments, tendons and joints, prevents osteoporosis and improves posture. Development of muscle strength which in turn leads to increased bone strength (increased bone-mineral density) thus preventing osteoporosis. A psychic level, increases the capacity of willpower and self-control, reduces anxiety, stress, aggression and depression, stimulates creativity, emotional capacity and improves memory and self-esteem of the individual. The physical inactivity is now very common in society and is a risk factor for a wide range of diseases. [1]. A sedentary lifestyle was defined as taking less than 30 minutes of physical activity outside working hours or 30 minutes of physical activity that less than 3 times a week. [5] It has been estimated that physical inactivity may otherwise be responsible for 12. 2% of myocardial infarctions in the world population and thus a major preventable causes of death. [5] The lack of physical activity also results in:. To improve physical performance and sports for several years in the market have been incorporated heart rate monitors, also called heart rate monitor, CARDIOTACHOMETER, Frequency Meter. They are of different types and different brands, their duties ranging from taking pulse, calorie consumption, record of work done to transfer the work done to the PC for analysis by the coach, life fitness functional trainer or by the athlete. Heart Rate Monitors prices are relative, and many of them are guaranteed by the Anmat of Argentina (medical certificate indicating that they have accurate electrocardiogram). Known brands in the market are: Polar, Garmin, Tressa, Pro Space, Omron, GPress, Reebok, Pulse Tronic, Mio, Timex, Casio, and many others. The teams consist mainly of 2 parts: a chest strap Ergonomically that can come with built-in battery (sealed) or spare batteries and a watch that receives information from the band for telemetry. The signal is sensed every 2, 3 or 4 s depending on the quality of the monitor in question is an exercise electrocardiogram. These devices can enhance athletic performance or in cases of cardiac patients to perform a cardiac rehabilitation respecting the values ??of heart rate have been indicated by the cardiologist. In people who do not have any at cardiovascular dysfunction can begin using these devices with a well-known formula for athletes so you can get the theoretical maximum heart rate. The optimum would perform a stress test also called exercise test and set the maximum frequency supported by the athlete. Once the maximum heart rate, and by the limits of maximum and minimum heart rate that can define the heart rate monitor to work and get the following basic objectives:.
