Re: [RC] Heart rates - Maureen A. Fager

Crystal asked "HI :-) Can anyone explain to me or point me in the right direction (i.e. a website or books with the info) how to train and read the heart rates with a heart monitor?"***********

I can name three resources for your persual:

Heart Rate Training for Horses by Neil Craig and Michael Nunan. This is a small paper back book that is sold by various folks who sell HRMs and endurance tack. It does include charts for heart rate zones.

The Fit Racehorse II by Tom Ivers. Ivers discusses HRM's quite comprehesively in this book.

Conditioning Sport Horses by Hilary M. Clayton. Chaper 12 is titled "Heart Rate Monitoring." I've peeked into this book and if I remember correctly, she does have a charts for heartrate zones.

Cheers,
Maureen
