Polar RS400 Running Heart Rate Monitor

This page is for informational purposes only because I am no longer a Polar Authorized
Dealer. I have instead chosen to be an Independent Beachbody Fitness Coach,
helping thousands of people just like you to achieve their health, fitness and weight
management goals. For more information on the Team Beachbody Club and how I

Polar RS400 Review

The Polar RS400 has the perfect combination of features including Polar Sports Zones, Polar Interval Trainer and the Event Countdown Timer to manage your training for that key running event. You can upload your settings to your running computer, download your workout files to the Polar Running Coach Web Service for analysis and further analyze your workouts with Polar ProTrainer 5.0 Software.

Polar RS400 Event Countdown Timer Feature

The Polar Event Countdown Timer lets you set an event as your goal and stay motivated. Keeps your motivation high by showing how many days are left before your next running event (e.g. Boston 23 days).

Polar RS400 Interval Timer Feature

With the Polar Interval Timer (HR, pace, distance) guided workouts you can create your personal multizone workouts with heart rate/speed/ distance and timing guidance. Allows you to create and name your own favorite workouts based on time, heart rate, speed/pace or distance guidance with up to three linked timers or distances and up to three target zones. The optional S1 Foot Pod must be added to allow you to take advantage of the Speed and Distance function.

Polar RS400 Sport Zones Feature

The Polar Sport Zones feature helps you to train at the right intensity. Polar sport zones provides an easy way to select and monitor the intensity of your training and to follow Polars sport zones based training programs. The training is divided into five zones based on percentages of your maximum heart rate: very light (50-60%HRmax), light (60-70% HRmax), moderate (70-80%HRmax), hard (80-90% HRmax) and maximum (90-100% HRmax).

Polar RS400 ZonePointer Feature

Use the Polar ZonePointer and you will easily stay in your target zone. A visible and moving symbol on the display of your Polar product indicating that you are inside the pre-set target zone.

Polar RS400 ZoneLock Feature

Set your target zone with Polar ZoneLock - simply the easiest way to set a target zone. You can activate a target zone with a press of a button during your run. You can also deactivate the zone alarm just as easily by pressing a button.
