Does anyone have any pointers on using the recovery HR function on the Polar 720i? I am having some difficulty understanding this function.

Thanks

Instead of resting in function of time, you rest between series as long as it takes till you get the recovery HR you choose.

It’s normally used in the kinda of workout you have to do some distance at full speed and repeat it 3, 4, 5 times. The recovery HR insures that you will rest enough to do another repeat at max speed again. Example: 4 x 1000 m at max speed. Rest as long as you take to get your HR bellow 145 bpm.

If your question is how to set it up on the watch, I have one S720i and with the instrutions book I learned how to do it.

It is more a question of how to set it up. I will have looked at the instruction booklet and I must be missing something. I will try again and if there is no success I will be back.

Thanks again
