If he is on the right track he will rather quickly notice that his waist measurement is decreasing. If not, he can make adjustments to his program. Many people who ease into exercise underestimate the intensity of "moderate" exercise. Hence, monitoring his exercise heart rate will make sure that he is optimizing his workouts. Also over time, he may notice that his resting heart rate slows down. | |
