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.

COMFORTABLE TO WEAR. WORKS WELL SOME NUMBERS MAY BE HARD TO READ FOR THOSE NEEDING READING GLASSES. EVERY NOW AND THEN WATCH LOOSES CONTACT ON CYCLE MACHINES BUT SEEMS TO BE OK ON TREADMILLS AND GENERAL JOGGING. WORKING WITH WEIGHTS HAS NO ADVERSE EFFECTS.

I bought this strap hoping I could use it at the gym. Unfortunately, it is not compatible with any of the cardio equipment. Apparently, it only works with the watch.

I’m happy to throw away my original polar belt; this one is much better.

Well pleased with comfort and accuracy of the transmitter. I use it with my rowing machine. Only complaint is the direction to twist the transmitter off the strap is not clearly marked. This is only a factor in the beginning, but after using it a few times it becomes a piece of cake.
