Don’t underestimate FITSPARK adaptive training either. Whilst it sounds a bit techy, it’s not, it’s like having a pro coach on your wrist to support your fitness whenever you want to use it. Add that to Polar’s other training tools and you have an impressive suite of fitness tools usually found on more expensive athletic watches.

Apple Watch always wins on the techy smarts (if you are on iOS) and Garmin wins for those of you who are wannabe athletes but Polar excels in the middle ground where very many people want a highly competent fitness watch that can offer trusted, straightforward & meaningful insights into an active lifestyle. My partner LOVES the Ignite/Ignite 2, simple as that. Specifically, it’s the detailed sleep analyses and the presentation of the activity, workout and sleep data on the app that they like.
