Polar Introduces the RS800CX Training Management System for Multisport Enduranc...( for heart rate zones enabling ath...),Health

for heart rate zones, enabling athletes to see the relationship between

their performance and terrain.

-- RS800CX RUN ($499.95) - builds from everything included with the base CX

set and adds the Polar s3 stride sensor to monitor advanced running

metrics like cadence and stride length, as well as speed and distance.

It also provides a range of personal training zones to train at the

right intensity level, and tracks a user's progress using Running

Index, a feature that calculates efficiency by correlating heart rate

and pace.

-- RS800CX BIKE ($449.95) - also builds from everything included with the

base CX set and adds the Polar CS speed sensor W.I.N.D., which allows

users to effectively plan and analyze every detail of their ride.

Cyclists can see their route profile and total miles climbed with

altitude, ascent and descent features, and can also view uphill or

downhill steepness in percent grades for more efficient training. The

Polar CS cadence sensor W.I.N.D. can be purchased separately for

additional performance tracking.

Polar ProTrainer 5 software, which comes with all RS800CX sets, gives users a completely customized, deeper understanding of their training by using graphs that bring to life data such as heart rate, speed, distance, cadence, duration, elevation and other performance metrics. Users are guided to train properly through a 5-step process of planning, training, uploading/downloading data, analyzing, and following their progress. Heart rate data is also color-coded for easy reference, tracking, and goal-setting.
