Polar FT 7 - In stock

Some runners are focused mainly on weight loss or management, while others rely on running to improve their aerobic fitness. No matter why you run, the Polar FT7 heart rate monitor watch is the perfect tool for balancing weight loss and aerobic exercise goals. The watch has a built-in program, EnergyPointer, that shows you whether you are burning fat or improving your fitness levels.

The Polar FT7 includes a wireless transmitter that comfortably tracks your heart rate. The recorded data is then used to create target heart rate zones and can be uploaded to Polar’s online program to monitor your improvement.

The Polar FT7 has most features you would expect a normal sports watch to have. You can view time and date, and the watch indicates when the battery needs replaced. It can be backlit, and you can set an audible alarm. How the FT7 differs from a run-of-the-mill sports watch is its ability to track your progress and then upload that data to an online fitness program. This program can monitor pace levels, calories burned and more. Unfortunately, it can’t track speed or location because this heart rate monitor watch doesn’t include GPS.

Polar’s website offers an instructional video demonstrating how to use the FT7 posted on the product’s page under media. This video will show you which buttons control which function. We found it very helpful. Polar also backs up its watches with a two-year warranty, FAQs, and a technical support email and phone number.
