Previous Questions

Hi Can you set the target hr yourself and also is the watch able to show your heart rate in terms of % of max (e.g. if I wanted to workout at between 60-75% of my max, could I set that as a zone and/or would the watch display what % I was working out at currently)? Thanks in advance Martin

Hi Martin yes you can apply your age-based heart rate target zone limits. if you want to know the percentage you would need the f4 as this only shows bpm. Yours in health Sam

I purchased this watch through my health club and when the stop watch was on, if you pressed the light button, the stop watch stopped! Please can you advise me whether this was correct and if not how it works without the syop watch going off. Also, I could not see how to activate the heart monitor. Thanks

Hi Richard, When you would like to put the backlight on whilst the stop watch is running, try pulling your arm closer to your transmitter belt and it should automatically switch it on.

Is the transmission chest belt included in Polar Fs3C price?

Yes all polar watches come with a chest strap. Yours in Health Laura

Are there any watches that dont require the transmitter belt to pick up heart rates. each time i wear my belt it leaves me with a rash on my side where the belt is fastened

Hi Chris, The Mio watches have two sensors on the face of the watch, and when you place a finger and thumb on these it picks up your pulse rate. So this could be an option. Also, Polar are due to lauch a new watch that measures activity through your pulse readings, therefore no chest strap is required. It is the first one of this kind that Polar have launched, and we will be lucky enough to able to sell it. (They are only allowing certain distributers the rights to sell this model) If I remember correctly is is going to be called an AW200. If you would like further information don't hesitate to get in contact. Yours in Health Sarah Hensby PhD Fitness

Which model of chest strap is included and will it work with other Polar models?

Hi Per, The chest strap included in this model is the T31 Coded Transmitter Belt. This is compatible with all Polar products except the FS1. Yours in Health Sarah Hensby PhD Fitness

Does the chest strap fit all? I am buying this for a female 34" Chest

Hi Stuart, These come with a standard strap which is size M-XXL. I'm sure this would fit her, as it starts off quite small and has lots of stretch in it. If she does have any problems with the size, we can buy in small straps as optional extras. Sarah Hensby PhD Fitness

Would the chest strap fit a 47 inch chest?

Hi Marcus, The chest strap is size M-XXL, so should fot your 47 inch chest fine. Sarah Hensby PhD Fitness

Regarding the audible alarms - does this mean I can set a max and min heart rate, which if crossed, will notify me to adjust my pace? Thanks

Hi Owen Yes it does this is a very good popular watch, it will not interfere with other equiptment either. Yours in health Sam

Does the monitor have the facility to show your splits? Roy

Hi Roy unfortunately this does not. If you wanted a watch that can do this you need to be looking at the are the running watches which are the polar s range or the cycle watches s7 or the cs range. Yours in health Sam

Does the watch work out your calories burnt during exercise?

Hi sophia yes this does tell you how many calories you burn. Yours in health Sam

Are you sure it tells you calories burnt

Calories burnt is listed on the display. Yours in Health Sam@phd-fitness

Is the watch waterproof? It doesn't say in the spec. Thanks Jenny

Hi Jenny No this watch is not water proof. Yours in health Sam

You advised Jenny that the Polar Fs3c heart rate monitor is not waterproof, yet other monitor sellers specifications say it is water resistant to 50m. Who is right?

Hi Peter Apologies on the incorrect answer before. Yes these are water proof up to 50m. Yours in health Simon

Hi, could ou please tell me which watch would be best for me. I am going to start doing some walking exercise or cycling, and I really want one that is easy to use, and accurately tells me the calories I have used, for my age. I am with the weightlossresource and need to see the calories I use all through the day. Thanks Eileen

Hi Eileen. The F4 is the cheapest option with calorie counter. Yours in health Sam

Hi, it states that monitors 'target zones' can you please idenitfy how many target zones it covers? I'm looking for a watch that covers 5, if this watch doesn't cover 5 target zones do you have a watch you could recommend? Kind Regards, Jenn

Hi Jenn FS3C only gives you alarm when you drop below min or max HR. You need to look at F4 and above for 5 target zones. Yours in health Sam

Hey. Looking to a heart rate monitor. fetaures that i'm looking at include: x no chest strap x stop watch x distance measurement x linking software Which product is best suited?

Hi Maxwell an F4 would be sutable for yourself as this have all the specific that you require of you wanted more feature you would be looking at anything between the F5 and F55 Yours in health Sam
