9. Tests PRODUCT NAME Page 1 of 8 MANUAL NAME 9. TESTS POLAR FITNESS TEST™ Select Test > Fitness The Polar Fitness Test™ is an easy, safe, and quick way to measure your aerobic (cardiovascular) fitness at rest. The result, Polar OwnIndex, is comparable to maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max), which is commonly used to evaluate aerobic fitness. Your long-term level of physical activity, heart rate, heart rate variability at rest, gender, age, height, and body weight all influence OwnIndex.
9. Tests Page 2 of 8 z Avoid heavy physical exertion, alcohol, and pharmacological stimulants on the test day and the previous day. z You should be relaxed and calm. Lie down and relax for 1-3 minutes before starting the test. Before the Test Wear the Transmitter For further information, see Wear the Transmitter.

Polar OwnOptimizer is an easy and reliable way to determine whether your training program is optimally developing your performance. Polar OwnOptimizer is developed for use by healthy adults. Polar OwnOptimizer is a modification of a traditional orthostatic overtraining test.
9. Tests z Page 6 of 8 Avoid eating, drinking and smoking 2-3 hours prior to the test. Performing the Test Select Test > Optimizer > Start > Optimizer Lie Down Arrows indicate the test is ongoing. Do not move during this first part of the test, which lasts 3 minutes. After 3 minutes, the cycling computer will beep and Optimizer Stand up is displayed. Stand up and remain standing still for 3 minutes. After 3 minutes, the cycling computer will beep again and the test is finished.
9. Tests Page 7 of 8 Steady State (4) Your heart rate has continuously been at a normal level for a long time now. Effective training requires both heavy training and good recovery, and this should cause variation in your heart rate results. Your OwnOptimizer result indicates that you have not had very intensive training or good recovery for a while. Perform the test again after a rest or light training day. If the recovery is effective, your result should show Good recovery.
9. Tests Page 8 of 8 comfortable with. Monitor your recovery by performing the OwnOptimizer Test 2–3 times a week. Once you feel you have recovered your balance, and your result shows Normal State or Good recovery, preferably more than once, you can then consider resuming training. Once you start training again, begin a new testing period with new baseline measurements.
10. Using a New Accessory Page 1 of 3 PRODUCT NAME MANUAL NAME 10. USING A NEW ACCESSORY TEACHING Your CS600 cycling computer has been synchronized, or “taught” to work together with the Polar WearLink W.I.N.D. transmitter and to measure heart rate, speed and distance. In other words, your cycling computer receives signals from your transmitter and speed sensor only, and enables disturbance-free exercise in a group.
10. Using a New Accessory Page 2 of 3 If you haven’t taught speed sensor to recognize a certain bike before, speed information will not be shown. Select > Off and the display returns to the previous menu display. To return to time mode, press and hold the BACK button. Once the speed sensor is taught to recognize the cycling computer, it will do so even if the sensor has been turned off. When the speed sensor is turned back on Teach new sensor? is displayed.

11. Backround Information Page 1 of 6 PRODUCT NAME MANUAL NAME 11. BACKROUND INFORMATION POLAR SPORT ZONES Polar sport zones offer a new level of effectiveness in heart rate-based training. Training is divided into five sport zones based on percentages of your maximum heart rate. With sport zones, you can easily select and monitor training intensities and follow Polar’s sport zones-based training programs.
11. Backround Information Page 2 of 6 HRmax = Maximum heart rate (220-age).Example: 30 years old, 220–30=190 bpm. Cycling in sport zone 1 (Very light) is done at very low intensity. The main training principle is that performance level improves after training during the recovery period, not only during training. You can accelerate your recovery process with very light intensity training. Sport zone 2 (Light) is for endurance training, an essential part of any training program.
11. Backround Information Page 3 of 6 target zone for that particular type of exercise and day. For more information on how to determine your OwnZone see Determine Your OwnZone. MAXIMUM HEART RATE Maximum heart rate (HRmax) is the highest number of heartbeats per minute (bpm) during maximum physical exertion. It is individual and depends on age, hereditary factors, and fitness level. It may also vary for different types of sports. HRmax is used to express exercise intensity.
11. Backround Information Page 4 of 6 HEART RATE VALUE IN A SITTING POSITION HRsit is your average heart rate when completely still (i.e. while sitting). To easily determine HRsit, wear your transmitter, sit down, and do not engage in any physical activity. For a more precise measurement, repeat the procedure several times and calculate your average. HEART RATE RESERVE Heart rate reserve (HRR) is the difference between maximum heart rate (HRmax), and resting heart rate (HRrest)*.
11. Backround Information Page 5 of 6 HRV indicates the fluctuations of heart rate around an average heart rate. An average heart rate of 60 beats per minute (bpm) does not mean that the interval between successive heartbeats would be exactly 1.0 sec, instead they may fluctuate/vary from 0.5 sec up to 2.0 sec. HRV is affected by aerobic fitness. HRV of a well-conditioned heart is generally large at rest. Other factors that affect HRV are age, genetics, body position, time of day, and health status.
