Athlete Mode:
Special calibration for very fit adults.
Tanita's "athlete" is someone who gets approximately 10
hours a week of intense physical activity (this can be exercise, work or
leisure related.) "Athletes" also have a resting heart rate of
approximately 60 beats per minute or less. This mode includes people who
have been very fit for years but currently exercise less than 10 hours
per week. It does not include "enthusiastic beginners" who
recently started making a real commitment to exercising at least 10
hours per week but whose bodies have not yet changed to qualify for the
Athlete mode.
Not intended for professional athletes or bodybuilders.
