MySportTraining Polar allows you to download workout data via infrared from your Polar heart rate monitor S series right into your Palm OS handheld and to view it in a snap (see supported Polar monitors and Palm OS handheld models below). No need to wait until you get back to your desktop to see how hard your worked. If you are a cyclist and keep your Polar monitor mounted on the handlebar, you no longer need to remove and re-install it after every ride; simply download your workouts into your Pocket PC! Additionally, your workout data (including the Polar data) can be synchronized onto your PC and viewed with MySportTraining for Windows for further reviews.

No need for any additional hardware. All you need is your Polar heart rate monitor and your Palm OS handheld. The data can be saved into workouts, so you don't have to enter the information from your heart rate monitor. It's practical, fast, fun and motivating!

The download process is simple and straight-forward:

* In MySportTraining, tap New > HRM Download, then choose Download

* Set your Polar monitor in CONNECT mode.

* Align your Polar monitor's infrared port with your handheld's infrared port. The data is automatically downloaded within seconds and displayed when completed.

Within seconds, you have a clear and precise snapshot of your effort and performance. See all the information you need: statistics, time spent in each training zone, lap information and charts: heart rate, speed, distance, cadence, power, power balance and power index (depending on your Polar model and features available). Zoom in and out of the the charts and customize their appearance. Note that some interval-based training may not properly be displayed.

MySportTraining Polar seamlessly integrates into MySportTraining for Palm OS (sold separately). Since it's fully integrated in MySportTraining, there's no new user interface to learn, and only one application to use!
