I repeated doing my 1 minute jogging in place, 30 jumping jacks and then 1 -2 mins of stretching my leg muscles before starting the workout video and my monitor. Again I noticed the performance improvements. My heart was beating faster and I feel like I had a better workout. You be the judge.
Avg HR = 117 bpm (higher than usual)
Peak HR =151 bpm (during the Mason Twist at the end as usual)
K Burned = 162 (higher than usual)
Again keep in mind my watch's calorie counter is a bit aggressive, and so it is safe to shave a few off, maybe as much as 20 from what it says given the results from last Sunday at the gym when compared to the Precor machine. Since I am using the same watch throughout it does show you if I improved in each workout in calories burned. Also I do believe the heart rate is correct as I have hand checked it myself a few times and have come up with the same or almost exactly the same bpm. Consumer Reports did say this watch's heart rate monitor is quite accurate.
