ACTIVITY TRACKING

V800 tracks your activity with an internal 3D accelerometer that records your wrist movements. It analyzes the frequency, intensity and irregularity of your movements together with your physical information, allowing you to see how active you are outside your training sessions.

You’ll get a daily activity goal and guidance on how to reach your goal. V800 also reminds you to get up and move when you’ve been inactive for too long. View the data on your V800 or Polar Flow App.

The daily activity goal you get from Polar V800 is based on the global physical activity recommendations for moderate and vigorous intensity activities, as well as research findings on the negative health effects that too much sitting may have on you. The daily activity goal V800 gives you may in fact be slightly more than most recommendations state. In addition to one hour of moderate intensity activity, also the low intensity activity plays an important role in fulfilling V800's daily activity goal requirements.

Your daily activity goal is set based on your physical settings and your typical day. If you are an office worker, for instance, you would be expected to reach about four hours of low intensity activity during an ordinary day. For people who stand and walk a lot during their working hours, V800 has higher expectations.

ACTIVITY DATA

V800 gradually fills up an activity bar to indicate your progress towards your daily goal. You can view the activity bar in Today's activity and, optionally, in time view (change the watch face by pressing and holding UP).
