›Train smart with The Bodydoctor and Polar

29/06/2011

Highly respected and known for his personal training courses and used by celebrities and elite sports men and women alike, the Bodydoctor has transformed the lives of thousands of people around the world. Polar, equally, is widely acknowledged as the market leader in heart rate monitoring, helping individuals train as effectively as possible to reach their goals.

Polar and the Bodydoctor share the same ethos. Many people believe that in order to achieve results they have to train as hard as they can. Both Polar and The Bodydoctor agree that to burn fat effectively you have to exercise within a certain zone. If you increase your intensity over this rate you will improve your aerobic fitness but will not burn fat as effectively.

At the heart of both businesses is the understanding that in order to maximise your training and see the results you want you need to train at the right intensity. Whether you want to burn fat, improve your fitness or fine tune your performance levels you need to be training at a particular intensity, which is personal to you. The Bodydoctor recognizes that the best way to achieve this is to train with a Polar heart rate monitor. Your Polar will show you exactly what your heart rate is so that you are always training at the right level. And the good news is that it often does not have to be as hard as you think!

Malcolm Douglas, Managing Director of Polar UK said “We are very pleased to be working with The Bodydoctor and his understanding of the importance of training with heart rate. Training at the right intensity to reach your goals (be they weight loss or improved fitness) is vital and a heart rate monitor is the perfect tool to help you achieve this. The Bodydoctor has successfully trained thousands of people with the help of Polar heart rate monitors to guide the intensity of their workout.”

David Marshall, The Bodydoctor, comments, “I am delighted to be working with Polar. I have used their heart rate monitors for years. They allow me to guide my clients to train at the right level and what’s more I can tell them what their heart rate should be when they are exercising outside of their personal training session so that they can train effectively on their own too. I would recommend the use of a Polar heart rate monitor to anyone, whatever their level.”
