Prevents cross-talk from other heart rate monitors.
As more and more people use heart rate monitors today, preventing cross talk from other devices in group situations
at the gym or when jogging with a friend becomes essential. The unique coded technology blocks unwanted signals
from other heart rate monitors, ensuring disturbance-free transmission of your heart rate data. |

the interval training session with the help of the preset training phases: warm-up with a target heart rate zone
and a countdown timer, up to 30 intervals with a target heart rate zone (after each interval you have a recovery
calculation option), cool-down with a target heart rate zone and a countdown timer. |

| Polar Fitness Test™ with OwnIndex® |
|
| A fitness test that measures your aerobic fitness at rest in just five minutes.
The result, Polar OwnIndex, predicts your maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max ). With the Polar Fitness Test you can
measure your aerobic fitness by yourself, automatically and without any exertion. No other equipment other than
a heart rate monitor is needed. The Polar Fitness Test is as accurate in predicting the VO2max as any submaximal
fitness test. The test is based on gender, age, height, body weight, level of physical activity, heart rate and
heart rate variability at rest. The result, OwnIndex, ranges usually from 20 to 95 and is comparable to VO2max,
the golden standard of aerobic fitness. OwnIndex is most meaningful when following changes in your fitness over
a long period of time. Find out how fit you are for your age and gender by comparing your result to the global
references listed in the Polar user manuals. |
| Polar OwnCal with Altimeter correction |
|
| Polar OwnCode® (2.4 GHz) W.I.N.D. |
|
| Polar OwnOptimizer™ |
|
| Polar OwnOptimizer test is an easy and reliable way to determine whether
your training program is optimally developing your performance. Based on the test, you are provided with a scale
and description of your personal training status. |
| Polar OwnZone® |
|
| Determines personal heart rate limits for a training session. The Polar
OwnZone (OZ) feature determines an individual training zone. It guides you through an appropriate warm-up routine
and automatically determines a safe and effective training heart rate zone - your OwnZone - while taking into account
your current physical condition. Polar Heart Rate Monitors use multiple methods for determining your OwnZone. The
primary method is to measure your heart rate variability during the warm-up period before training. If the measurement
is not successful, your latest saved OwnZone limits are used. If there are no previous limits in the memory, the
Polar Heart Rate Monitor will automatically calculate OwnZone limits based on your age-predicted maximum heart
rate (220 minus age). You should determine your OwnZone at the beginning of your workout whenever you change training
environment and/or training mode or if you feel stressed, or not recovered. The OwnZone Basic corresponds to 65-85
% of the maximum heart rate. Training at the lower end of this intensity level can be conducted for extended periods
safely and often yields the best results for weight control, while workout at the upper end of this intensity produces
the best results for improving aerobic (cardiovascular) fitness. The OwnZone Advanced feature consists of two training
areas: OwnZone Low and OwnZone High, providing greater variations in training than the OwnZone Basic area, which
can be rather wide for more focused training. The OwnZone Light corresponds to 60-70% of your maximum heart rate.
This intensity feels fairly easy for most people. It helps in weight control and improves endurance and cardiovascular
fitness. The OwnZone Moderate corresponds to 70-80% of your maximum heart rate. This intensity is especially good
for people who are training regularly. Training in this zone is particularly effective for improving cardiovascular
fitness. The OwnZone Hard corresponds to 80-90% of maximum heart rate. You will find yourself breathing heavily,
having tired muscles and feeling fatigued. This intensity is recommended occasionally for fit people. |
| Polar sport zones |
|
| Polar sport zones provide an easy way to select and monitor the intensity
of your training and to follow sport zones based training programs. The training is divided into five zones based
on percentages of your maximum heart rate: very light (50-60%HRmax), light (60-70%HRmax), moderate (70-80%HRmax),
hard (80-90%HRmax) and maximum (90-100%HRmax). |
| R-R Intervals / Online HR Variability |
|
| Measures your heartbeat intervals and reflects autonomic nervous system
activity in heartbeat regulation. The R-R interval measurement is most useful at rest and at low intensities. Relaxation
rate indicates the state of your physical recovery. |
