POLAR and ACSM Presents: Heart Rate Monitoring Assessment Course

This certificate course was created through a collaboration between ACSM and Polar, a leader in wearable device technology.

This course will provide both fitness professionals and heart rate monitor enthusiasts a foundational knowledge of the physiology of heart rate and how to build an effective heart rate based training program. This course will primarily focus on utilizing five heart rate training zones through the exercise disciplines of cycling and running. In addition, utilizing online platforms such as Polar Flow and TrainingPeaks to manage heart rate training will be addressed. After completing this course, fitness professionals will understand how to utilize all training heart rate zones to build effective endurance programs and address specific training obstacles that may present themselves throughout a program.
