Heart rate monitors are great to help teachers asses student participation, but athletes have to work much harder to reach the same heart rate as a non-athlete. If one of the NASPE standards is to "achieve and maintain a health enhancing level of fitness," is it necessary for the athletes to push themselves into the same THR as everyone else if they are already at a healthy state? How do you determine and narrow an appropriate range for each person?
