"With the smart training functions, every training session can be planned and analyzed down to the last detail. The personal sports zones help you to train at the right intensity, the RCX3 shows the data relevant to the sport and provides feedback immediately after your training session. This way, you can be motivated for your next session and always know where you stand in your training," says Sandra Ottiger from Polar Electro Europe, based in Zug.

The GPS-enabled training computer also offers a flexible training system. Equipped with compatible sensors, the device meets all requirements in a wide variety of sports. Successes can be shared with friends. Simply connect the RCX3 to the online training diary polarpersonaltrainer.com and you can tell your friends about your training sessions. For easy planning of the next training session, you can see your training load in the web service and have everything perfectly in view.

Training Benefit is the latest function from Polar. After each training session, it shows feedback on the training effect and the duration of the training session. The summary in simple words offers a brief review of the training session. More details about the workout are saved in the training data. The online training diary on polarpersonaltrainer.com provides an even deeper insight. The RCX3 clearly answers the question of how the body reacts to the training stimulus. The RCX3 training computer has a large display and shows two or three training parameters in one view.

The RCX3 comes in two colors, black and white are available. The natural arrangement of the buttons makes it easier to use during training, while the air-permeable or narrow strap provides additional comfort. The RCX3 will be available in four different product sets: With the GPS sensor, you can record your route for later tracking. The Run package is for runners who want to improve their running efficiency, while the Bike version guarantees precise recording of bike data. Or you can choose the RCX3 with the comfortable strap for trouble-free heart rate recording and combine it later with compatible sensors of your choice.

And for all those who are already riding the Tour de France in their thoughts and would love to complete their cycling training in the yellow jersey, Polar is launching a Tour de France edition of the RCX5. The black and yellow design brings the Tour de France feeling to every training session with the RCX5.
