Body measurement features

Average and maximum heart rate of training
Heart rate – bpm / %
Heart rate is the measurement of the work your heart does. Heart rate can be expressed as the number of beats per minute or as percentage of your maximum heart rate. Heart rate can also be expressed as a percentage of your heart rate reserve, meaning the difference between your resting heart rate and maximum heart rate (HRR = HRmax - HRrest). In Polar software or during strength training, heart rate can be displayed as a graphical trend.
HR-based target zones with visual and audible alarm
You can define your target zones for a training session based on heart rate to help define the right intensity. When you are out of the preset zones, the training computer will give a visual and audible alarm.
HRmax (user set)
Manual target zone – bpm (upper limit)
This feature enables you to define the target zone as you want and is suitable for your training. You can set the target zone for your training as beats per minute (bpm), as a percentage of your maximum heart rate, or as a percentage of your heart rate reserve (HRR%).
Polar EnergyPointer
EnergyPointer is an easy-to-use feature which tells you during a training session if the main effect of your training is fat burning or fitness improvement. EnergyPointer visually indicates the center point between these two training effects, so when you are below that point, you are improving fat burning, and above that point, you are improving your aerobic fitness.
Polar OwnCal® – calorie expenditure
Polar OwnCal calculates the number of kilocalories expended during training. This feature allows you to follow the kilocalories expended during one training session and cumulative kilocalories expended during several training sessions. Some Polar products also estimate the fat-burning percentage (fat% on display), that is, kilocalories expended from fat during a workout which is expressed as a percentage of the total kilocalories burned.
Polar OwnCode® (5kHz) – coded transmission
Coded heart rate transmission automatically locks in a code to transmit your heart rate to the training computer. The training computer picks up your heart rate from your transmitter only. Coding prevents interference from other training computers.
Training load – available via polarpersonaltrainer.com
This feature is available in Polar software. When you transfer training results from your training computer to polarpersonaltrainer.com, you can follow your training load and recovery in the training diary. Continuous monitoring of training load and recovery will help you recognize personal limits, avoid over- or undertraining, and adjust training intensity and duration according to your daily and weekly targets

›Nothing More Important Than A Good Health -Chin Kai Yoon (Singapore)
I am using the Polar FT7 watch as my wrist watch to remind myself daily that there is nothing more important than having good health. By having good health, nothing is impossible. Moreover, good health is the best gift to myself, my loved ones and my family. Polar help me to keep my passion for sports and for life.

›It Is A Mind Game -Pam Thomas (USA)
The FT7 has motivated me so much. I can see the progress I have made which motivates me to keep going. Sometimes when I would normally quit running, I see how many calories I have lost and I will push to go a little further to burn a few more calories. I play alot of mind games with myself using the watch!! It has taught me what how to listen to my body and breathing during exercise. Even if I don't have it on, I can now tell how hard I'm working and at what level based on my breathing. It is awesome!

›All For My Baby Girl -raymond e.sokolowski (USA)
not a long story. we recently welcomed a brand new baby daughter to our family. in order to be the best father possible and be able to keep up with her during her life,i really needed to become a more fit parent. with that i can have more energy to play longer without being winded or tired, thus providing a good and healthy upbringing for her. i cannot preach good health and exercise without practicing it myself.
