Next month Polar will release its RCX5 Training System. It is the first heart rate mon­i­tor to be release by Polar in over a year. The RCX5 has a few nice fea­tures that might make it into a big seller. Five heart Rate zones offer multi-sport options so you can dif­fer­ent zones for run­ning, bik­ing, swim­ming or any other activ­ity.
The RCX5 heart rate mon­i­tor uses a proac­tive train­ing sys­tem that cre­ates plans, helps to per­form them and will help adjust the plan auto­mat­i­cally. This com­bi­na­tion of fea­tures makes orga­nized endurance train­ing very easy for any­one. Sports zones are per­son­al­ized for every train­ing ses­sion mak­ing sure you always train at the proper inten­sity.
The RCX5 works with both a Mac or a PC and its G5 GPS sen­sor is a tiny frac­tion of the size of the pre­vi­ous GPS units.
