The FT40F Women's Heart Rate Monitor Watch is designed to provide you with clear training guidance as you workout. The watch itself features a sleek and fashionable design that you can wear at any time for basic timekeeping. When you are ready to workout, put on the included Wearlink Heart Rate transmitter for full-featured workout guidance. Designed for comfort and convenience, the transmitter has a soft fabric band and is coded to avoid cross-talk with other monitors, so that you can use it in a gym without interference.

The FT40F goes beyond simply measuring your heart rate and provides clear training guidance so that you can meet your fitness goals. To begin, the FT40F uses the Polar Fitness Test to measure your baseline fitness level and your fitness level at rest. After your baseline has been established, the FT40F goes on to measure your progress. Meanwhile, the FT40F EnergyPointer significantly simplifies exercise by graphically displaying your exertion in one of two zones--either fat burning or fitness improvement. Additional features include HeartTouch, button-free operation, multiple recording and memory options, calories burned information, and training available via polarpersonaltrainer.com.

Heart Rate Strap Monitor Does Not Work, November 14, 2011

This heart rate strap that is to be used to measure your hear rate does not work after 6 months of use. The watch still is working but will not make contact with the heart rate link strap which costs about 79.00 by itself. I would not recommend this watch because of the inconsistency of the heart rate monitor strap.

I am very pleased with the new polar FT40 heart rate monitor I purchased. The price was amazing AND the monitor is wonderful. It is very user friendly too. I was worried that it would have more functions than I was able to understand, but it's very straight forward. The watch itself is extremely light yet durable. I hate the way a watch feels on my wrist, but this one is pretty comfortable. I am able to work out way more effectively than ever before. This is an excellent product.

I had a Polar F6 and LOVED it! It lasted three years with me wearing it non-stop and using it every day! The battery started to go, and the face had gotten pretty scratched up, so I decided to replace it. I ended up getting the Ft40F and LOVE it!! The chest strap is much more comfortable than the F6 one was and there are so many wonderful features. The only thing I liked better on the F6 is the watch strap...it seemed to stay put better on the F6. On the Ft40F it comes loose from the band. But it's really not too much of an issue...I was just spoiled with how well it stayed put on the F6. I would recommend this heart rate monitor to anyone...it always works with no glitches!
