Amazon.com Product Description
Featuring a new, slim design, the F4 is Polar's first heart rate monitor designed specifically for women. It'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 OwnCal: 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 OwnCal feature. Because the OwnCal 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.

  • Fitness Bullets: 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.

Key Features:

  • Display of heart rate, exercise time, and average heart rate
  • 24-hour clock with day/week indicator and stopwatch
  • Large easy-to-read display with split screen
  • One-year average battery life
  • Water resistant to 30 meters (100 feet)

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.



Product Description
The F4 is the first women's specific unit from Polar, combining all the necessary heart rate features with a new, slim design. It includes the popular Zone Pointer feature that helps keep you in your Target Zone, and OwnCal to track the calories you burn in real time during your exercise. This well-rounded monitor offers automatic age-based heart rate target zones that will keep you exercising on the right track. You can also override the automatic setting to manually change this zone for fine tuning to fit your particular metabolism. With stopwatch and convenient button free operation, the F4 is a valuable fitness tool. Includes Wrist Unit with CR1632 battery, Transmitter with built-in lithium cell, and Elastic Strap to hold transmitter on chest.

1 out of 5 stars Stopped working after three weeks   July 4, 2010
M. L. Dehm (Seattle, WA USA)
Three weeks after purchasing this unit, it started recording strange heart rate readings for no apparent reason. The next day, it stopped reading the heart rate all together no matter what I tried. It now seems to be stuck in one mode, simply recording time. I can reset it and I can use it as a watch but that's it.
After reading all of the other reviews here, I'm not sure it's worth the time to try and get it repaired.



5 out of 5 stars Very good workout buddy   June 28, 2010
Laura
It's a very useful tool in finding out how to maximize your workout. The HRM is picked up by the treadmill so i don;t need to keep looking at the watch. It records calories spent, time, heart rate, average heart rate and others that are very very useful to know. My workout would not be as efficient without this little thing (and the strap). The only thing is that the treadmill and the watch have about 100 calories spent difference at the end of the workout and I'm not sure which to believe, but I always calculate somewhere in between. Great buy overall.


5 out of 5 stars Great and simple polar!   June 5, 2010
Natalia Brenes
This polar is great! It's to useful to control your heart rate, depending of the effort that you want to do; and it tells you if you have up or down your workout.

It's also to simple to use, and gives you the calories burned!!!



5 out of 5 stars Exactly what I was looking for   May 10, 2010
Kindle Reader (Orlando, FL)
I bought this heart rate monitor so I could measure my calorie burn during my morning workouts. I've had this product since 2007, and it's still working great! Very easy to use, and the strap that goes around your chest is comforable and easy to put on. I usually put it under the bottom lip of my sports bra and have never had a problem with it.

Easy to setup and use. Provides an accurate summary of calories expended by factoring in your age age and weight. It's also a good casual watch.
