0ur opinion: :Polar F6 Heart Rate Monitors features include continuous heart rate, 0wnCal, 0wnZone, 0wnCode and watch/stopwatch functions.
:The Polar F6 heart rate monitor is a great choice for using in large groups where other exercisers might be using wireless training gear that could interfere with your own signal. The F6's coded transmission prevents crosstalk with other monitors so you'll get a personalized workout--even in a class environment. lt's packed with innovative training features to help you toward your exercise goals, including:
- Zone Pointer: A visible and audible feature on the display of your heart rate monitor showing your target heart rate zone and where your current heart rate is within that zone.
- Polar 0wnCal: This feature shows your energy expenditure during one exercise session as well as your accumulated kilocalories during several exercise sessions. You can set daily and weekly exercise goals in terms of calorie expenditure with the 0wnCal feature. Because the 0wnCal tracks both the energy expenditure during one exercise session and the accumulated kilocalories during a longer time e.g. one week, it helps in achieving both short term and long term goals.
- Polar 0wnZone: This feature guides you through an appropriate warm-up routine and automatically determines a safe and effective exercise heart rate zone--your 0wnZone--while taking into account your current physical condition.
- Polar 0wnCode: This technology blocks unwanted signals from other heart rate monitors, ensuring disturbance-free transmission of your heart rate data.
The Fitness Bullets feature shows a bullet on the monitor's display for every 10 minutes spent exercising/training in your target heart rate zone. The Time in Target Zone feature calculates the amount of total exercise time spent in your personal target zone. You can use this feature together with the Total Exercise Time to determine the effectiveness of your exercise program. You can also better assess your training data using the included Polar Precision Performance (PPP) 4.0 software and the SonicLink feature, which wirelessly uploads exercise settings to the software or to Polar's web service.

About Polar The first EKG accurate wireless heart rate monitor was invented by Polar back in 1977 as a training tool for the Finnish National Cross Country Ski Team. The concept of 'intensity training' by heart rate swept the athletic world in the eighties. By the 1990s, individuals were looking to heart rate monitors not only for performance training needs, but also for achieving everyday fitness goals. Today, the same concept of heart rate training is being used by world-class athletes as well as everyday people trying to lose weight. Polar is the leading brand among consumers, coaches, and personal trainers worldwide and the company is committed to not only producing the best products, but also being the leading educator on the benefits of heart rate based exercise.

* Jeff G ...
This is a solid basic heart rate monitor that functions as advertised. It is adequate for anyone other than world class athletes that need more bells and whistles.

* i love this thing! ...
I've been working out in a classroom setting the last three months and wanted to know if i'd been hitting my target heart rate. I noticed several other people in my class had polar HRMs. I went out to the local sports stores to try to find one but all they had were the pink breast cancer ones or the large black mens watches. It was nearly impossible to find this model in the store. I use this HRM for every workout and love to see how hard i'm working out. I haven't had any problem with interference or batteries yet.

* So glad I bought this! ...
Before it got here I was starting to have buyer's remorse. I kept thinking, do I really need this?? I knew I wanted it but need it?
I am so glad I got it and can't believe I didn't follow through sooner.
It worked perfectly. Registered all the information perfectly. I found it incredibly motivating and it really only took me about 15 minutes to figure out how to use it. It was easier than I thought.This one is a no brainer. I am grateful to another reviewer who mentioned it comes with the chest strap, because I didn't find that clear. It is fantastic and worked flawlessly.
I am very happy I purchased this.
UPDATE: A few days in now and I wanted to add that I easily added all my HRM data onto polarpersonaltrainer.com and that was very easy. That is another really useful tool. I just found the send feature under file, and it chirped away into the microphone and uploaded it into my account.
