1. What is the MZ-Switch?
MZ-Switch is the world’s first heart rate monitor that you can wear on your chest, arm or wrist. Track your real time heart rate and effort to see your data on screen and move through the zones to earn MEPs (Myzone Effort Points). Wearable three ways, simply switch between the chest belt, wrist strap and arm band, depending on your choice of physical activity. It’s time to switch things up.
2. How does the MZ-Switch measure my heart rate?
When on the wrist or forearm, the MZ-Switch uses an optical blood flow sensor that shines a light into your skin using LEDs that measures the blood flow to determine your heart rate. When in chest mode, the black pads on the strap make direct skin contact to deliver electrocardiogram (ECG) quality signals directly from your heart.
3. How do I wear the MZ-Switch?
Wrist: Slide your hand through the loop and pull the strap to tighten against your skin. The module should be positioned two fingers above your wrist bone. Forearm: Slide your hand through the loop and position just beneath the elbow with module facing out. Chest: Place the strap around your body. Snap the module onto the strap and position the module on your sternum with direct skin contact. Wet the black pads for better heart rate conductivity.
4. When should I use the MZ-Switch on my wrist, forearm, and chest?
Wrist: Use for non-gripping activity and repeatable movements, including swimming. Forearm: Use for improved accuracy during non-gripping activity and repeatable movements, except swimming.Chest: Use for the most accurate readings during all types of exercises except swimming.
