Polar Heart Rate Monitors offer an unsurpassed measure of heart rate and bio feedback. As an athlete, you understand the benefits that technology can offer. Titanium frames, aero bars and scientific nutrition are advancements that have shaped the sport for the last 15 years. But there is one thing that has been around the sport even longer – a heart rate monitor. More specifically, a Polar Watch. To understand how a Polar Heart Rate Monitor can help you, Polar has established the Polar 3 Point Message: 1. In order to reach your goals, you need to train at the right intensity. 2. Heart rate is the only accurate measurement of your intensity or your exertion level. 3. A Polar HRM is the easiest and most accurate way to continuously measure your heart rate. If you're not using a Polar heart rate monitor watch, you probably train with someone who does. You may have resisted until now, and hopefully that will end here. There are many different thoughts on how to prepare for a triathlon, whether Olympic distance, Ironman, or just a sprint. Two of the most famous triathletes of all time actually have very different approaches to training. Mark Allen and Dave Scott have adapted their own way of preparing themselves and their trainees for competition. But there is one thing that their training programs have in common. They both rely on heart rate monitors as a critical part of their program. Not sold yet? Just open a Triathlete or Inside Triathlon magazine and you are bound to find an article on heart rate training. But, you have to experience the benefits of an HRM yourself. If you're very new to the concept of a Heart Rate Monitor, you might be wondering what it is. It consists of a watch worn on your wrist, and a transmitter that you comfortably wear against your skin and around your chest. The transmitter picks up the signals of your heart, and sends them wirelessly to the watch you wear on your wrist. It's that simple. No wires, no taking your pulse and doing a multiplication equation. Just look at your wrist and it's there. And the key – it’s displayed continuously. The continuous display is what makes it effective. It's there to guide you during your entire workout. The Polar Heart Rate Monitor is like a coach that guides you through each workout. For endurance workouts, it paces you so you don't overdo it. For tempo runs, it keeps you on track. And for interval workouts, it makes sure you go hard enough and you recover when it's time. Nothing else can guide you that way. It can show you when you are dehydrating, or running out of nutrition, or not recovered from a previous day's workout. It allows you to analyze workouts and races so you can identify your weaknesses and turn them into strengths. Your titanium frame is great, but if you're not training the right way, it may as well be made out of lead. If you are familiar with the likes of Polar Heart Rate monitors, you understand why they are among the best made. They are able to track not just your heart rate but also your running speed, distance (with the Foot Pod), cycling speed and distances (with speed and cadence sensors). Integration of these functions keeps Polar at the top of their game. They bring their expertise in heart rate training to you – the everyday athlete. Ask your TriSports.com sales person for assistance if needed. Triathlon training within heart rate zones is important for success in triathlon races. These heart rate monitors make tracking your Ironman Triathlon training or sprint triathlon training easy to both track and analyze.
