Customer Reviews of Polar M32 Heart Rate Monitor Watch

Customer Review: An Excellent Training Companion - It Will Help you Get in Shape and Stay Fit
Summary: 5 Stars

The Polar M32 is simply Awesome. I bough this watch about a year ago for my wife and she loves it.

Once she started using it, she was hooked-up to all the useful information the watch shows during your running, walking, or any kind of training or workout.

Its the perfect complement to your desire to get in shape, improve your health or competitive level.

The watch is easy to use. The transmitter that comes with this model is better than the one that comes with other models, since you can replace the battery when it runs out (with the other model you have to buy a new transmitter, since it is sealed).

As soon as you star training and exercising with this magnificent watch, you feel as if you have a coach or a training partner with you.

If you are an athlete, an enthusiastic runner, a hobbyist, or just conscious about your shape and health, you will definitely love this watch. She does. I own the s625x running computer from Polar and I love it to.

In my case, when I bought my first Polar wrist watch, about six years ago, I also bought the book "Heart rate monitor training for the complete idiot". I was looking for an introductory reference on the use of heart rate monitors for general fitness improvements, and wasn't disappointed at all, since what I learned really worked out for me: Armed with my Polar I was able to drop more than 200 lbs in about eight months, and the heart rate monitor training has helped me keep those lbs off for over six years. Not only I went from size 44 to size 32 pants, but also obtained substantial benefits that included weight control, cardiovascular improvements, lowered blood pressure, and improved muscular-skeletal strength and flexibility, but also the myriad of mental and psychological benefits derived from being in the best shape of my life.

The book taught me how to calculate the most important parameters for heart rate monitor training: Maximum Heart Rate, Resting Heart Rate, the Recovery Ceiling, and the Threshold Flour. When I first started training with the heart rate monitor I was unable to jog even for five uninterrupted minutes without gasping for air. After a few months of following one of the training principles lay out in the book (The Hard/Easy Principle): alternating hard training days with easy training days, I was able to go jogging for 90 uninterrupted minutes six days a week.

About Polar
The first EKG accurate wireless heart rate monitor was invented by Polar back in 1977 as a training tool for the Finnish National Cross Country Ski Team. The concept of "intensity training" by heart rate swept the athletic world in the eighties. By the 1990s, individuals were looking to heart rate monitors not only for performance training needs, but also for achieving everyday fitness goals. Today, the same concept of heart rate training is being used by world-class athletes as well as everyday people trying to lose weight. Polar is the leading brand among consumers, coaches, and personal trainers worldwide and the company is committed to not only producing the best products, but also being the leading educator on the benefits of heart rate based exercise.
