The periods when you sleep peacefully and don't move a lot are calculated as restful sleep. The periods when
you move and change your position are calculated as restless sleep. Instead of simply summing up all the
immobile periods, the calculation gives more weight to long than short immobile periods. The percentage of
restful sleep compares the time you slept restfully with the total sleeping time. Restful sleep is highly indi-
vidual and should be interpreted together with sleep time.
Knowing the amount of restful and restless sleep gives you a look into how you sleep at night and if it's
affected by any changes in your daily life. This may help you in finding ways to improve your sleep and feel
well rested during the day.

Activity data in Flow App and Flow web service

With the Polar Flow mobile app you can follow and analyze your activity data on the go and have your data
synced wirelessly from your Polar Loop 2 to the Polar Flow service. The Flow web service gives you the most
detailed insight into your activity information.
Activity Benefit tracks all your active choices during the day and shows how they help you stay healthy. It'll
reward you when you've done enough and make you move if there's still a bit missing from your daily activity
goal. Activity Benefit gives you daily, weekly and monthly feedback, because the more you move, the greater
the health benefits. You can check up on how you're doing either from your mobile or from the web.
Activity zones: Polar Loop 2 tracks your daily activities at five intensity levels: resting, sitting, low, medium
and high. It measures the different activity zones (low, medium, high) so that the higher the intensity, the
faster your goal is reached. In the Polar Loop 2 bracelet, 'UP' means low intensity, 'WALK' means medium
intensity, and 'JOG' means high intensity. You can find more examples for low, medium and high intensity
activities at the Polar Flow web service.
Advanced activity analysis: The total active time tells you the cumulative time of body movements that are
good for your body and health. Besides the many details you get about your physical activity and all the health
benefits that come with it, you can also see the inactive periods and when you've been still for too long.

Training with your Polar Loop 2
Polar Loop 2 tracks all of your activity. To get even more out of your daily sports, the Polar Bluetooth Smart®
heart rate sensor is an optional, but a perfect match for Polar Loop 2.
With the heart rate sensor you get more information about your training. You can see your heart rate accur-
ately and in real time in your Polar Loop 2. In addition to the heart rate, you see the main effect of your training,
and you can focus on what you want to achieve - burning fat or improving fitness. This feature is called Energy
Pointer. For more information, see
Energy Pointer.
By using a heart rate sensor, you can track your cycling sessions much more accurately. When you wear a
heart rate sensor, it shows up in the Polar Flow web service as a training session after you've synced your
data.
