Sports reviews of Polar F11 Heart Rate Monitor Watch (Grey Pepper)
Customer Review: Reach your goals!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
Had the F11 about 2 months now. Detailed review below, but here's the short version - if you want to reach specific fitness goals the F11 can revolutionize your exercise program. Get one.
Best- the F11 tells you the truth, and keeps a record of it. It has revolutionized my exercise.
Worst- generic look, cheap wrist strap, mediocre website.
This is my first HRM. Did some internet research & talked with several fitness buffs. Polar is the top of the line in HRM technology & experience. Splurged on the F11 due to the ability to track & upload exercise data. The F11 does all that and more.
I am fairly technical. The F11 took a week to get used to. I highly recommend you download the manual. Now I can easily navigate all menus during exercise (even without my glasses#. The F11's ability to generate a customized exercise program, along with tracking & reporting results, has revolutionized my approach & intensity. Day 1 I realized I was overdoing it. But if your intensity or consistency is lagging the F11 will push you #beep at you# to reach the goal. I have exercised longer, more carefully #i.e., pushing myself but not killing myself), and more consistently because I am using the F11.
"OwnZone" sets a personalized heart beat range for each exercise session. Session lengths & intensity are customized based on heart rate measurements coupled with user inputs of age, weight, physical fitness, & goals. Session results are recorded by session & summarized by week. Max heart rate, average heart rate, calories burned, duration, etc. The only thing missing is distance, which for me is not important (I often do stairs & other cardio that is not running). When you reach your weekly goals, the watch displays a victor's cup (corny, but you want to see it!)
I love the ability to upload data to the website. However the website is not customizable. I really wish you could export data into Excel, but the website does provide lists & graphs. My first attempts to upload from the watch were unsuccessful, but read the manual & experiment & it works fine. The website is not great but it is the best thing out there. You can't upload all files at once but that's not that big of a deal.
In short, this is a fantastic tool in getting results. Plan to invest a little time up front in learning the menus & getting the upload setup correct. Your investment is well rewarded when you begin to forget the tool & focus on reaching your goals. Based on my experience with the F11 so far, I expect to own & use a HRM for the rest of my life & it will probably always be a Polar.

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.
