Whom is Polar Ignite optimal for?

What is Polar Ignite for?

Polar Ignite is a new-generation fitness watch to help you get the most out of your fitness workouts and become your true potential.

What makes it ‘new-generation’, you ask?

Well, it’s not just a fitness tracker – the Polar Ignite helps you balance fitness, life and well-being, giving you personalized daily workout tips, measuring your overall recovery, monitoring your sleep stages, and even helping you relax with guided deep breathing exercises.

Even though the Polar Ignite focuses strongly on overall well-being and recovery, it is first and foremost your ultimate fitness partner that offers more options to track a wide variety of sports, including running (integrated GPS) and swimming (swimming metrics).
 

What ignited (pun intended) the idea for this fitness watch?

After decades of working with and developing products for pro athletes, it has become evident that recovery is one of the real-life pain points athletes are struggling with. Many find it hard to estimate their recovery level or they tend to overlook recovery and just go full speed with the “more is more” approach to training.

    Even if fitness is a key part of your daily routine, it is most likely one of your priorities, not your whole life.

How Polar Ignite meets customer needs?

Rising from the real-life needs of athletes and exercisers, Polar Ignite emphasizes a more balanced approach to training and listening to your body.

To help you find the optimal balance between training and other important areas of life Polar Ignite introduces these new key features:

• Nightly Recharge™ – See how well you recover from your day during the night.
• FitSpark™ daily training guide – Get ready-made daily workouts that match your recovery, readiness and training history.
• Sleep Plus Stages™ – Follow your sleep stages and get insights to your sleep quality.
• Serene™ breathing exercise – Relax your body and calm down your mind with the help of a guided breathing exercise.
