Description of Polar F6 Women's Heart Rate Monitor Watch (Green Tea)
The Polar« F6 is the optimal choice for group exercisers. Coded transmission prevents crosstalk with other monitors so you'll get a personalized workout, even in a class environment. It includes all the features of the F4, plus guidance with OwnZone« to automatically establish your personal target heart rate zones and feedback with OwnCal« to track your calories and % of fat burned.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. 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: 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 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.
- Polar OwnZone: This feature guides you through an appropriate warm-up routine and automatically determines a safe and effective exercise heart rate zone--your OwnZone--while taking into account your current physical condition.
- Polar OwnCode: 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.
Other features include:
- 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.
Sports reviews of Polar F6 Women's Heart Rate Monitor Watch (Green Tea)
Customer Review: Polar is the only brand for me
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I always get Polar HRM- they last forever & I usually give my old ones to my sisters to use, because they still work. But when it comes to working out, I am a gadget junkie so I have to have the newest model/color. I noticed the biggest complaint by others is battery replacement. I have never had a transmitter quit working & my batteries usually last a good long while. So... when you go to replace your battery, use your local jeweler. He can order the battery if he doesn't have it on hand. F11, he has on hand usually- F6 or F4, may have to order. BUT it always costs me between $10-15!!! And I know he will put it back together well- no leaks. Don't worry about that waterproofing junk- mine have never leaked even after I replaced the batteries. Polar is the best, hands down- & they have great features & are easy to use!Customer Review: Perfect!

I spent a lot of time reading reviews and learing about HRM's before I made my purchase. What I was looking for was something dependable, accurate, easy to use, stylish and affordable.
The F6 fit all of my needs and then some. I have been using it now for about a month and I could not be happier with my purchase.
I was initially concerned about having to wear a HR strap but it is comfortable and I don't even realize that it is on. I love that it communicates my HR to the cardio equipment too that way I can see what zone I am working in without having to check the watch.
This HR is so simple to use I think anyone can do it! I also love that you get a weekly report on your workouts.
A+
Customer Review: 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.Customer Review: Great Product & Service

I ordered the product above and was surprised when I received it one to two days after the order was placed. They ship very quickly. Unfortunately, the watch had a damaged screen. The company was great and let me exchange the watch. Within a few days, the next watch was waiting for me at home when I got home from work. Again, I was surprised with how quickly they took care of my claim & shipped it out to me. This one worked great! My sis-in-law loves it and uses it every time she works out!Customer Review: Loving This!!!!!

So far I am loving this!!! This is my first heart monitor. I wear it to the gym everyday. The band fits really well under my sports bra so you can't even tell I am wearing it. All of the gym equipment at my gym is able to pick up my heart rate which is great! I don't even have to look down at my wrist to see my heart rate.
I am a little nervous about having to send this to get the battery changed and everything but we will see.
