Howdy! I picked up the Frontier X after my cardiologist told me to limit my exercise to “light to moderate” workouts while we address my idiopathic cardiomyopathy (7 cm). I am not convinced that exercise is the cause. Even with my most intense workouts, the most Cardiac Strain my Frontier X has reported was 0.04, with an average of 0.01. Are…Read More

Okay, good to know! I’ll keep my focus on heart rate during my activities. I also have a follow-up with my cardiologist pretty soon, and I hope he will be willing to review the data

Hi Malcolm,
Welcome to the Frontier heart Forum!
The Frontier X is a great tool for exercising when you have cardiac concerns.
Here are 3 tips to get the most out of your Frontier X.
1. Set vibration alerts.- set alerts on heart rate, breathing rate or cardiac strain to achieve your training goal. Link2. Review your training load to compare…Read More

I was wondering if Frontier has determined desirable training loads based upon age and other factors, or if it is only a single number for all users. Thanks!

The Training Load Goal starts from a default setting as per the WHO guidelines, but then updates every week according to the individual’s age and fitness levels 🙂

Hi – I recently forgot to turn off the monitor after a 2 hour cycle, letting it run for another hour and noticed that my QTc at rest is higher than while exercising and above 440, whereas it is below while exercising. Is this significant?

Hi Nemel, Our QTc algorithm is based on Bazetts formula, I.e. QT interval(in ms)/square-root of RR interval (in secs). This formula leads to most people having higher QTc values at rest than during exercise, so that is expected:).
Medical literature states that 440 – 500 is a spectrum where QTc MAY be significantly prolonged but needs contextual…Read More

Hi The Chadd,
I hope you’ve been enjoying the Frontier X. We hope you’re using breathing rate alerts to regulate your exercise intensity to light and moderate workouts as you desired.
It’s completely normal for most individuals to have normal cardiac strain during intense workouts and may not be related to cardiomyopathy. Here is some more…Read More
