Whatever your interest in equine activities, there is no more reliable measure of a horse’s biological condition than heart rate. Continuously measuring the horse’s heart rate can help you:
- Design an exercise program that is safe, reliable and appropriate for your discipline.
- Measure how your horse is responding to exercise or training.
- Monitor your horse’s recovery from exercise or injury.
- Provide a vital indicator of your horse’s general health.
Heart rate monitors continuously measure a horse’s heart rate, via an electrical impulse transmitted from an electrode secured to the horse’s body. The impulse is received on a transmitter worn by the rider/driver/trainer. The receiver looks like a wristwatch and the heart rate is displayed on a screen for the rider or driver to view. Some advanced monitors are even equipped with additional speed sensors and have the capability to download the information into a computerized program for comparative study and training.
