Polar FT40 REVIEWS

Polar FT40 Best fitness watch I have ever used.
I have used Polar products in the past and was never disappointed. However, when my last polar finally kicked the bucket, I was feeling cheap and tried out a wide range of other heart rate monitors. They all had accuracy, loss of sync, and storage issues. The Polar FT40 has NONE of these problems. Not only that, but I got my wife the same watch (women's of course), and there is never any signal interference when we are exercising together. Storage is stellar, the watch is easy to use, it tracks exactly what I want, and is an awesome tool in helping me achieve my exercise goals.

NOTE: If you are training for triathalons, races, etc, buy a Polar that is designed more for that. This watch does not have lap abilities and is really designed for the purpose of calorie counting...which, for me, is perfect!! 


Polar FT40 GREAT!
A great motivator for me to record my heart rate regularly and correlate with my weight loss. Certainly easy to use and focus on the best way to lose weight.

Polar FT40 Makes the Difference.
This device takes the guesswork out of the workout. My issue is weight loss. For me, prior to having this gizmo, the point working out was to get the calorie burn working. If I burn more calories then I take in, then I lose weight. Fitness was a byproduct.

But just how many calories did I really consume?

When I do workout, what was my average heart rate?

Peak heart rate after the stress is the killer; what was that?

Now that I have the metrics a whole new world is opening. This device is turning me into exercise freak and my wife and daughter say that is a good thing.


Polar FT40 Heart Rate Monitor Works Great.
This watch has changed the way and method that I work out! A must-have for someone that works out a lot!
