The Polar WM41/WM42 Weight Management Heart Rate Monitor is a device that looks like any normal watch but helps lose and maintain weight successfully with extensive guidance. Comprehensive list of features: Weight Management Program, Program update, OwnZone, OwnCal and diary for Exercise, Intake and Weight. With a comprehensive weight loss and maintenance program, the polar weight management system asks you to input your target weight and helps you stay there once you have reached your goal.
Comes in two stylish designs. The WM41 is for Men and the WM42 is for women.
Polar Weight Management Program Your personal weight management program, that gives guidance on
how many calories to eat and how many to expend through exercise in order to
achieve target body weight in chosen duration.
Program UpdateReminder to input your weight daily and to update your Weight Management Program weekly. Polar Weight Management Program feature, i.e. a reminder to input your weight daily and to update your Weight Management Program weekly.
Exercise Diary
Monitor the amount of calories burnt during exercise sessions in comparison to your weekly target. A feature of the Polar Weight Management (Polar WM42/WM41) Program Diary where you can view your exercise calories for the last 26 consecutive weeks and compare them to your weekly target.
Nutrition Diary
Input and monitor your nutrition calories in comparison to your daily target. A function in Polar Weight Management Program Diary (WM 41/WM42), where you can view your automatically saved calorie intake for the last 14 consecutive days.
Faster OwnZone® (basic) Determines personal heart rate limits for an exercise session
now in just 5 minutes. The Polar OwnZone feature determines an individual and
safe light to moderate intensity exercise zone (65-85% HRmax). Polar Heart Rate
Monitors use multiple methods for determining your OwnZone. The primary method
is to measure your heart rate variability during the warm-up period before
exercising. It guides you through an appropriate warm-up routine and
automatically determines a safe and effective exercise heart rate zone - your
OwnZone - while taking into account your current physical condition.
Alternatively, the Polar Heart Rate Monitor will automatically calculate
OwnZone limits based on your age-predicted maximum heart rate (220 minus age).
The OwnZone corresponds to 65-85 % of the maximum heart rate. Exercise at
the lower end of this intensity level can be conducted for extended periods
safely and often yields the best results for weight control, while exercise at
the upper end of this intensity produces the best results for improving
cardiovascular fitness. When you exercise, you can also use your heart rate
monitor's latest saved OwnZone limits. However, you should recalculate your
OwnZone at the beginning of your workout whenever you change exercise
environment and/or exercise mode or if your psychological state changes when
feeling stressed or depressed, for instance.
The OwnZone Advanced feature consists of two training areas: OwnZone High
and OwnZone Low, providing greater variations in exercising, as the OwnZone
Basic area can be rather wide for more focused exercising.
The OwnZone Low corresponds to light-to-moderate/moderate intensity level
or about 65-78% of your maximum heart rate. The OwnZone Low is ideal for warming
up, for weight loss-related exercise for sedentary and less fit individuals and
for those recovering from sickness or intensive training.
OwnZone High corresponds to moderate intensity or, at most, to heavy
intensity exercise typically targeting fitness benefits and corresponds to about
78-87% of your maximum heart rate. Switching to this intensity during exercise
is useful, for instance, when you want to add a higher intensity section to your
exercise.
OwnZone Weight (in Polar WM42/WM41) corresponds to 60-75% of your maximum
heart rate. Polar M31/M32 and Polar WM42/WM41 Heart Rate Monitor models are
equipped with Faster OwnZone (basic) feature that determines personal heart rate
limits for an exercise session in 5 minutes.
