REVIEW:Get the most out of your workout with the Timex Ironman Men's Road Trainer Heart Rate Monitor Watch. This mid-sized watch can be worn for everyday time-keeping--and when you're ready to hit the road, track, or trail--the Ironman becomes a full function workout computer. With multiple modes to help you track and interpret your heart rate as you exert, the easy to read Ironman Road Trainer helps you reach your fitness goals safely and efficiently. And, thanks to digital transmission between the watch and monitor, the Ironman Road Trainer will not be affected by other heart rate monitors and/or electrical equipment near you.

Critical Performance Monitoring:
Wearing this performance watch, you can preset your desired heart rate target zone to one of six ranges, review your workout average, and meet your peak heart rate during every workout. The watch provides feedback on critical information including the amount time you're spending in your desired heart rate exercise zone, and lets you know when you're above or below that zone. After an interval or a workout, the recovery heart rate timer measures your recovery time, and lets you know what your average heart rate was over a lap or through the workout, how long you spend in the target zone, and even how many calories you burned. Additional training tools on the Ironman include a 50-lap memory with average heart rate per lap, a 100-hour chronograph with lap and split, and a 100-hour, 22-mode countdown timer. There's also an alarm with a five-minute backup. If you're working out at night, turn on the INDIGLO night-light feature to see your results in any light conditions. Built for active use in any conditions, the watch is water-resistant to 100 meters and features an adjustable elastic strap and replaceable battery.

Facts About Blood Pressure


Your heart is your most important organ, and it's a good idea to know how well it's doing. With Omron home blood pressure monitors, you consistently get an accurate picture of your heart's health.


One in three adults suffer from high blood pressure in America. This condition can lead to heart attacks, strokes, kidney failure, and blindness. With the Omron 7 SERIES upper arm monitor, you can monitor your blood pressure at home, and with the help of your physician, take steps to decrease your risk of heart disease. A healthy heart combined with a healthy lifestyle will help increase your chances for a long, active life.


Chart

View this chart to learn more about what the numbers mean.

What the Numbers Mean
Understanding your readings is easy with the Omron 7 SERIES blood pressure monitor. The easy-to-read screen displays your readings in large font and labels each number with a tab along the side.

     Systolic Pressure is the top number on the display. It's the pressure created as your heart contracts to pump blood throughout the body.

     Diastolic Pressure is the bottom number on the display. It's the pressure between beats, when your heart relaxes.
These numbers combine to give you your blood pressure reading (systolic over diastolic pressure).

How to Monitor + Tips
Your blood pressure numbers often change. For instance, your blood pressure in the morning can be significantly different than at night, when you visit a doctor's office, or after exercising. By using an Omron blood pressure monitor at home, you're able to detect changes in your blood pressure any time you want.


Monitoring at Home is Easy
To ensure an accurate reading, do not measure your blood pressure within 30 minutes of:

  • Exercising
  • Eating
  • Smoking
  • Drinking Alcohol
  • Bathing
Place the blood pressure arm cuff on your left arm and sit quietly for approximately five minutes with both feet flat on the floor. Then, when you are ready to test, simply press the start button and the Omron monitor will do the rest.

What's in the Box
One Omron BP-760 7 SERIES upper arm blood pressure monitor, ComFit Cuff (fits arms 9"-17" in circumference), AC adapter, storage case, and English/Spanish instruction manual.
