training. You can view your route on a map in the Polar Flow app or
Flow web ser vice after your session.
WRIST BASED HE ART RATE TRAINING
Your M4 30 has a built-in heart rate sensor that measures your heart
rate from the wrist. This makes heart-rate based training more
convenient than ever.
24/7 ACTIVITY TRACKING AND CONTINUOUS HEART RATE
Your M4 30 tracks your steps, activity, sleep and calories 24/7,
and supports you in achieving your individual daily activity goal.
The Continuous Heart Rate feature enables a more accurate
measurement of daily calorie consumption and your overall activity
because physical activities with very little wrist movement can also
be tracked.
