Special calibration for very fit
adults.
Tanita's "athlete" is someone who gets about
10 hours a week of intense physical activity (this
can be exercise, work or leisure related). "Athletes" also
have a resting heart rate of about 60 beats per minute
or less
The mode includes people who have been very fit for
years, but currently exercise less than 10 hours per
week.
It does not include "enthusiastic beginners" who
recently started making a real commitment to exercising
10 hours per week, but whose bodies have not yet changed
enough to qualify for the Athlete mode. |
