Easily measure your intensity level while jogging or working out with the Sportline Solo 915 women's heart rate watch.

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 women's Solo 915 comes in a sleek black color.

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.

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.
