Fitness Test with wrist-based heart rate
The Polar Fitness Test with wrist-based heart rate is an easy, safe and quick way to estimate your aerobic (cardiovascular)
fitness at rest. It's a simple 5-minute fitness level assessment that gives you an estimate of your maximal oxygen uptake
(VO2max). The Fitness Test calculation is based on your resting heart rate, heart rate variability and your personal
information: gender, age, height, weight, and self-assessment of your physical activity level called the training background.
The Polar Fitness Test is developed for use by healthy adults.
Aerobic fitness relates to how well your cardiovascular system works to transport oxygen to your body. The better your
aerobic fitness, the stronger and more efficient your heart is. Good aerobic fitness has many health benefits. For example,
it helps in decreasing the risk of high blood pressure and your risk of cardiovascular diseases and stroke. If you want to
improve your aerobic fitness it takes, on average, six weeks of regular training to see a noticeable change in your fitness
test result. Less fit individuals see progress even more rapidly. The better your aerobic fitness, the smaller the
improvements in your result.
