When you train, the different systems of your body become strained. Training Load Pro™ monitors this strain to provide you with detailed insights.
Training Load Pro gives you values for the load placed on both your cardiovascular and musculoskeletal system (Cardio Load and Muscle Load) after every session, and with Perceived Load you can rate how strained you feel - allowing you to see the immediate strain on your body, and monitor training induced strain over the long-term.
See how much of each energy source your body uses during training, broken down into fats, carbohydrates, and proteins for each session - illustrated as percentages of your total calorie consumption at the end of your session.
Seeing how much of each energy source you used during your session allows you to learn how different intensities affect your energy usage. You can also spot how the main energy source can change during a long session.
When you run, your body is working against gravity and friction, and requires a lot of power to overcome both forces - Running Power is the calculation of your energy output in relation to your work rate, measured in watts - the faster you work, the higher the power.
Polar Running Power from the wrist is unique in the sense that it provides accurate, scientifically-validated data for highly-responsive results consistently without the need for additional sensors - and this can be done only by using your watch.
FitSpark® personalized training guide offers daily, on-demand workouts that are easy to do, and match your recovery, fitness level, and training history.
Get new workout suggestions every day for cardio, strength, or mobility direct to your watch - all you have to do is pick the session you like and let your watch guide you through it.
FuelWise is a smart fueling assistant that helps you find the optimal way to fuel during a long training session or event.
To perform better over longer durations, you need to fuel your system with carbs and drink regularly. FuelWise™ gives you smart carb and drinks reminders for you to refuel and help you maintain adequate energy levels during long sessions.

Work-rest guide analyzes your heart rate during work and rest phases of a session to give you personalized guidance on the optimal time to start working again.
Specifically designed for strength training–and perfect for multi-joint exercises–it automatically detects your highest heart rate during execution of a set. The algorithm will then monitor your heart rate as you rest, and instruct you when you are recovered enough to begin your next set.
Measures the rate at which you climb or descend so you can get more accurate data and insights into your upward or downward movements when you train in varying terrains.
3D Speed factors in the speed you're going on a horizontal plane, and the speed you're going vertically, to calculate your true speed as you move onwards and upwards.
Recovery Pro works in sync with Training Load Pro to give you the full picture of your recovery, letting you know when your body is ready for more training, if you’re training at the right level, or if you should take it easier.
Instead of estimating, Recovery Pro™ actually measures your recovery by monitoring the balance between your training and recovery on a daily basis, and over the long-term.
You get feedback and suggestions that take into account training-induced stress, plus everyday stress outside of training, or bad sleep to provide you with personalized guidance to help you train the right way.
Run at the right level. The Running Performance Test helps you personalize your heart rate, speed and power zones, so that you’ll always hit the optimal running pace.
VO2max is a key figure to illustrate your aerobic fitness - in other words, the better your aerobic fitness, the stronger and more efficient your heart is.
Fitness Test is a simple 5-minute fitness level assessment that can be performed lying down to estimate your VO2max without needing any other equipment. The automatic calculation takes into account your resting heart rate, heart rate variability, and your personal metrics: gender, age, height, weight, and training background.
Walking Test is an uncomplicated test that you can perform regularly to estimate your aerobic fitness level based on your VO2max.
Walk at a brisk pace for 15 minutes along a flat route and the automatic calculation will factor in the distance you walk, your heart rate during the test, and your personal metrics: gender, age, height, and weight.
The Cycling Performance Test helps you follow your progress, allows you to personalize your power zones and tells you your personal functional threshold power. A compatible power meter is required.
An easy and reliable test to analyze your recovery from training and other life demands – so you’ll know when you’re ready for your next session.
Heart rate and heart rate variability are measured in supine rest, active standing up, and standing states during the test to indicate disturbances in the autonomic nervous system, such as fatigue or overtraining. The results also take several other factors into account, such as mental stress, sleep, latent illness, environmental changes (temperature, altitude), and others.Orthostatic Test is meant for long-term follow up, based on regular tests.
The Leg Recovery Test tells you whether your legs are ready for speed and strength training in just a couple of minutes without any specialist equipment – all you need is your watch.
The test is quick and easy to do, and gives clear, guided instructions on how to get the best results. Those results provide you with concrete advice on what type of workout benefits you most at the moment.
