Polar Fitness Test™ with OwnIndex®
Measures your fitness level in 5 minutes.
A fitness test that measures your aerobic/cardiovascular fitness at rest
in just five minutes. The result, Polar OwnIndex, predicts your maximal
oxygen uptake (VO2max).
The Polar Fitness Test is a revolutionary way to test aerobic fitness.
Gender, age, height, body weight, in addition to level of physical
activity, heart rate and heart rate variability at rest are all factors
influencing the test results. The OwnIndex ranges usually from 20 to 95
and is comparable to VO2max, the golden standard of aerobic
fitness.
OwnIndex is most meaningful when following changes in your fitness over
a long period of time. Find out how fit you are for your age and gender
by comparing your result to the global references listed in the Polar
user's manuals.
With the Polar Fitness Test you can measure your aerobic fitness by
yourself, automatically and without any exertion. No other equipment
other than a heart rate monitor is needed. The Polar Fitness Test is as
accurate in predicting the VO2max as any submaximal fitness
test.
