How would a Pulse Oximeter help me in sports?

A pulse oximeter is a small, handheld device that measures heart rate and the amount of oxygen in the blood. Strenuous exercise can greatly affect blood oxygen levels. As athletes test the limits of their bodies to go above and beyond to exceed at the best level they possibly can physically, the amount of oxygen needed by the muscles increases sharply (hence, the increased heart-rate). So, many athletes have begun to monitor how their body is performing at that level with a pulse oximeter. This is also useful for mountain climbers, or cyclists who perform at high altitudes where the air is thinner and has less oxygen.You can quickly monitor your heart reate and make sure your blood has a healthy amount of oxygen and your heart rate is in your desired zone in one compact, convenient device.
