SPECIFICATION

Suunto t4 Story
It's good to have a goal. And it's even better to have a plan. Designed for athletes in training, the Suunto t4 monitors your progress and makes intelligent workout recommendations for frequency, duration and intensity. Whether you accept or decline a recommended workout, the Suunto t4 heart rate monitor continues to adapt, maintaining an up-to-date plan for your athletic success.

Using the Suunto Coach feature, the Suunto t4 generates a 5-day plan for improving your aerobic condition. Employing Training Effect technology, it tells you which days to workout with information on duration and intensity.

If you accept a recommended workout, the Suunto t4 will guide you through the session to make sure you receive the proper training load. If you decline a recommended workout in favor of a rest day or a non-recommended workout, the Suunto t4 will continue to monitor and adapt, adjusting your 10-day plan accordingly.

Salient t4 features include Training Effect, heart rate, calories burned, and speed and distance with optional Suunto PODs. Additional functions include dual time, date, alarm and stopwatch with split/lap.

Equipped with optional PC POD and Training Manager Lite PC software, you can transfer data to your PC and easily maintain a personal training log.

Deeper Understanding
Training Effect (TE)

Training Effect shows the degree to which an individual workout improves your aerobic fitness.
More powerful than conventional zone training features, Training Effect tells you the quantifiable results of your workout.

Why Training Effect is important?
If your workouts are too easy, your aerobic condition won't improve.
Likewise, if your workouts are too difficult, you run the risk of overtraining and hindering improvement.
Between those extremes, it's difficult to gauge the effectiveness of a workout on gut-feeling alone.

Training Effect takes the guesswork out of working out, giving you real-time and post-exercise information about the effectiveness of your workout.

During exercise, Training Effect shows the real-time effectiveness of your workout.
After exercise, Training Effect displays the final degree to which a workout improved your condition.

Information in Action
Suunto Coach creates a snapshot of your aerobic condition and makes an intelligent plan for improving it. Based on your personal fitness information, the plan will contain a mix of high-intensity days, low-intensity days and rest days. By following the plan, your body will receive the proper training load for optimal improvement. Because the plan is living, any action or inaction will cause the plan to evolve. Here are the first six days a hypothetical Suunto Coach plan for moderate aerobic improvement.

Day 1: 30 minutes at TE 3.0
Day 2: 35 minutes at TE 3.0
Day 3: rest
Day 4: 25 minutes at TE 3.9
Day 5: 40 minutes at TE 2.5
Day 6: rest

The Suunto t4 will guide you through each workout, making sure you finish in the allotted time with the intended training load. If you miss a day, Suunto Coach will adjust the plan with optimal improvement in mind. As the weeks progress, the Suunto t4 will assess your progress and increase the training load as needed.
