ARMBAND HEART RATE MONITOR

-

THE Rhythm24 is a next generation, hyper-accurate waterproof armband heart rate monitor. Boasting an allnew look, it comes with expanded features and variable activity modes so that all accurate biometric measuremen­ts are captured, stored and shared via Bluetooth Smart and ANT+ devices including smart watches, sport watches, smartphone­s, tablets, and exercise equipment, among others.

Key improvemen­ts include a longer lasting 24-hour battery life, an IP68 sweatproof/waterproof rating, five changeable training/use zones/modes and a couple of multi-modes that have been specially designed for biathletes and triathlete­s training and activities.

In addition, there is also an LED battery indicator alongside on-board data recording capability. This recording feature enables users to leave their mobile devices behind as they take a crack at a particular fitness activity before uploading the captured workout data at a later time.

The kind of data capturing includes heart rate variabilit­y (HRV) mode, which enables users to keep track of the time between each heartbeat for increased stress and recovery tracking. There are also heart rate profiles thrown into the mix for a range of activities, where the three most common are swimming, running, and cycling.

The Rhythm24 can also measure blood flow and movement to calculate one’s heart rate and calories burnt in a far more accurate manner compared to convention­al heart rate monitors. The monitor itself is made from a silicone and polycarbon­ate hybrid material, boasting of a soft elastic strap that makes it comfortabl­e and functionab­le, regardless of whether you sweat it out indoors or outdoors.
