Working out without a heart rate monitor is like driving a car without a speedometer. It’s driving blind. The best athletes in the world carefully monitor their heart rates during cardiovascular workouts, and so should you.

One of the biggest myths in the fitness world is that you have to work hard and be out of breath to boost your fitness. Although it may seem counterintuitive, it is almost always better to stay below the point where you lose control of your breath; that is, below your maximum heart rate. When you work out this way, you burn more fat and exercise feels easier, so you’re inclined to do it more often.

Over time, you become more aerobically fit, meaning your body becomes more efficient at working out, because it’s more efficient at using oxygen. Fitness without fatigue. It’s the way to enjoy workouts more, enjoy your life more – and reap more benefit from exercise.

Don’t get caught in the trap of more is better. It isn’t. Smarter is better.

Eric Harr.
