Polar Fitness Test™ with OwnIndex®
Measures your fitness level in 5 minutes. A fitness test that measures your aerobic/cardiovascular fitness at
rest in just five minutes. The result, Polar OwnIndex, predicts your maximal oxygen uptake (V02max). 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 VO2maxas any sub-maximal 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 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's manuals.

Create your personal multizone workouts with heart rate/speed/distance
and timing guidance. Allows you to create and name your own favorite
workouts based on time,
heart rate, speed/pace or distance guidance with up to three linked
timers or distances and up to three target zones.
Polar sport zones
Helps you to train at the right intensity. Polar sport zones provides an easy way to select and monitor the
intensity of your training and to follow Polar’s 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).
ZonePointer
Makes it easy to stay in your target zone. A visible and moving symbol
on the display of your Polar product indicating that you are inside the
pre-set target zone.
ZoneLock
Simply the easiest way to set a target zone. You can activate a target zone with a press of a button during your
run. You can also deactivate the zone alarm just as easily – by
pressing a button.
Event Countdown Timer
Set your goal and stay motivated. Keeps your motivation high by showing
how many days are left before your next running event (e.g. Berlin 23
days).
