Easily measure your intensity level while jogging or working out with the Sportline Solo 915 men's heart rate watch. A big step forward in heart rate watches, the Solo 915 is the first watch in the Solo series to incorporate Any-Touch technology, which responds to a single touch anywhere on the stainless-steel case to deliver accurate ECG heart readings in mere seconds. Even better, the Solo 915 doesn't require an uncomfortable chest belt, nor do you have to stand still to measure your pulse. Want to know your heart rate while powering down the path? No problem. Easy to use, accurate, and responsive, the watch lets you cruise at your own speed with no strings (or anything else) attached. Other details include a built-in stopwatch, 12- and 24-hour time settings, an option for tracking your burned calories, and a large digital backlit display. The Solo 915, which is water-resistant to 50 meters, comes in a sleek black color.
About Heart Rate Training
Turns out, your heartbeat is a pretty big deal. It's actually one of the most important indicators of overall wellness, and is one of the most effective elements of any fitness program. Your heart rate not only controls your body but also the efficiency of your exercise. To get the most out of your physical activity--whether it's walking, dancing or aerobics--you need to make sure you are in your target heart rate zone. To determine your target heart rate, first subtract your age from 220. That's your maximum heart rate. Your target heart rate is roughly 50 to 75 percent of this maximum heart rate. To see how your fitness level is progressing over time, measure and track your resting heart rate--usually between 60 and 100 beats per minute--on a weekly basis. As you become more fit, your resting heart rate will decrease.
Your target heart rate generally encompasses three zones. Exercising in the Active Zone (50 to 60 percent of maximum heart rate) reduces blood pressure and cholesterol and is ideal for fitness beginners or those on a low-intensity program. Almost all calories burned in this zone are fat calories. Reaching the Training Zone (60 to 70 percent of maximum heart rate) requires more intense aerobic activity and is perfect for fitness enthusiasts working to burn maximum calories and fat. Finally, exercising in the Endurance Zone (70 to 80 percent of maximum heart rate) is generally recommended for athlete in training. The primary benefits of this zone are cardiovascular strengthening and elevated caloric burn.

Decent Heart Rate Watch,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sportline Men's Solo 915 Heart Rate Watch (Sports)
I purchased this heart rate watch to use mostly with running and cardio based workouts. When at rest, the watch seems to work pretty well, giving a relatively accurate bpm rating. The problem is during a hard workout, when my heart is racing, this watch seems to take quite a while to measure my heart rate and sometimes fails to display any reading at all. Despite this drawback, I still consider it a decent heart rate monitor for the money.

Review of Sportline 915,

This review is from: Sportline Men's Solo 915 Heart Rate Watch (Sports)
I purchased Sportline 915 specifically for its ability to provide a heart rate. The watch does that quite well, so well that when the face of the watch is just grazed it goes into heart rate mode, because of the its sensitivity. The only negative is not for the watch, but the little manual that accompanies the device. The manual does not indicate what all the screens do. I had to contact Sportline. They provided the answer in their responds. Age and gender are inputted into the second screen.

One of the best pulse monitors,
By Samuel L. Kalush - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sportline Men's Solo 915 Heart Rate Watch (Sports)
Excellent product. The device gives consistently reliable pulse rates while offering the convenience of a small device wrapped around the wrist. The device is similar to wearing a 'wrist watch'. Pulse rates are accurate during rest and exercise including brisk walking and weight lifting. I gave 4 stars rather than 5 because, for me, the logic of the device could be made simpler. I would suggest an immediate default to pulse rate and elapsed time. The most important parameter during aerobic exercise is attaining a certain pulse rate during exercise. The Sportline product allows the exerciser to easily and conveniently monitor his/her heart rate during exercise.Samuel L. Kalush, M.D. 13 of 13 people found the following review helpful

Continuous heart rate, high accuracy,

This review is from: Sportline Men's Solo 915 Heart Rate Watch (Sports)
I Have been looking for a strapless heart rate monitor for some time since my Casio died a few years ago. One aspect of physical health has to do with resting heart rate, so I did not want a strap. This watch fits the bill. It is also very good during exercise. Just be aware that the contact with your finger and the back of the watch to your wrist cannot be too dry. When you are sweating, this is not a problem. When at rest, if there is no reading, just wet your finger.
