FEATURES
Active Engine
Active Engine is an exclusive technology designed by
OMRON to measure physical activity intensity to provide a
more accurate calculation of calories and fat grams burned.
The HJA-301 measures the amount of calories and fat burned
based on a concept call Metabolic Equivalent of Task or,
MET. MET is used as a practical means of expressing the
intensity and energy expenditure of physical activities in a
way comparable among persons of different weight. Actual
energy expenditure (e.g., in Kcal) during a physical activity
depends on the person's body weight, therefore the energy
cost of the same physical activity will be different for persons
of different weight. For example, two people can run the
same distance within a day, but the person with more body
weight will most likely burn more calories. MET also take
into account that each physical activity has a different level
of intensity, so the Active Engine unit can accurately
measure calories burned if you are going for a leisurely stroll
through the mall or if you are running on a treadmill at the
gym.
Workout Mode
The HJA-301 model can separately track your pace, distance,
time spent exercising and calories burned in “Workout
Mode”. Press to begin or stop “Workout Mode”. The
function stores a maximum of seven previous sessions, up to
30 minutes each. Once you reach 30 minutes in “Workout
Mode”, your display will read “Good Job”.
Auto Stride Length
After you enter your height, your stride length will be
automatically calculated. You can change this calculated
length at any time based on your walking or running stride
lengths.
