Suunto t6 - Measure the effectiveness of your training
The Suunto t6 records your heart rate, altitude, and speed and distance while cycling or running (with the optional PODs). Whatever your current fitness level, by using Suunto t6 and its training software, you can plan a program that maximizes the effectiveness of your training and enables you to meet your goals.
Suunto t6 accurately records how your body performs during exercise, enabling later analysis and planning with Suunto Training Manager software.

It includes time, training assessment, synthesis of 7 body functions, heart rate monitor, average HR, training timers, altimeter, graphic barometer and analysis software. On the PC, you will see a complete speed profile of your run or ride, and you can compare it to your body parameters and altitude.
The components of this system (footpod, bikepod, chest stap) are coded using the ANT digital network, making it impervious to interference- the only one of its kind! Regular price is $499.00.

More about EPOC - Excess Post-exercise Oxygen Consumption: Suunto t6 measures the time interval between two heartbeats in milliseconds. Suunto Training Manager software uses this data to analyze the effect of your training and to calculate several other body parameters such as EPOC, respiratory rate and energy expenditure.
By relating this information to your current fitness level and factors such as your age, gender, weight and height the software also calculates the intensity and duration of training needed to improve your condition.
During your training, Suunto t6 helps you keep on track by offering control functions such as heart rate limits, real time average heart rate and customizable stopwatch display. These, together with impressive logbook functions, make Suunto t6 the perfect performance monitor for training at all levels.
