Go for a burly trail run and bring along a training partner that can accurately analyze your performance without making you mad—the Polar RS800 Heart Rate Monitor. Track your average, maximum, and target heart rate to make sure you're on point. The RS800 also includes Polar's OwnOptimizer function, which can tell you if you've rested enough between workouts. If you go out and tackle some hills, the RS800 will track your ascent and decent so you can see how far you've climbed. When you're finished, hook this heart rate monitor up to your computer and check out your stats. Tomorrow, head out and tackle something even harder to improve your performance.
Bottom Line: The Polar RS800 Heart Rate Monitor tells you the truth after a workout but won't get you angry.
