USING THE POLAR RS800 TRAINING SYSTEM
Plan your training program with ProTrainer 5
The program can be built up from an unlimited number of training
sessions with each session comprising up to 12 phases with an unlimited
amount of repetitions.
The duration of each training phase can be based on time, distance,
increasing heart rate, decreasing heart rate or manually set during exercise
(activate/deactivate through button push on the wrist unit). Phase intensity
can be defined in Polar sport zones, as a percentage of maximum heart
rate or left unspecified.
Transfer up to 21 pre-planned training sessions to the RS800 wrist unit
via infra-red (IrDA) link. The RS800 sets a reminder alarm for the
specified date and time of each session and configures itself automatically
with the desired settings.
NB: ProTrainer is very powerful and extremely configurable. To best experience what this
software can do for your training planning download a free trial version from www.polar.fi
Create Training Programs Directly on the RS800
You can also use the RS800 in free exercise mode or create dynamic
training sessions directly on the wrist computer with combinations of
heart rate, speed, distance and timing parameters.
Polar ProTrainer 5 calendar view gives a snapshot view of your training plan month by month.
