When the Limit alarm is on, Suunto t1
gives you an alarm when your heart
rate rises above the upper limit or
drops below the lower limit. The
alarm continues until you return to
your target heart rate range.
By checking your average heart rate you can adjust your training intensity to make sure thesession
is as effective as possible.
2.2.2. Heart rate zone settings
In the Heart Rate Zone menu, you can define the 3 heart rate zones and set the tones on or off.
The 3 heart rate zones are useful in training as they record how much of your training is spent
within specific heart rate zones, or if you want to give yourself a long enough warm-up, or keep
your heart rate at an optimum level for fat burning.
After training, you can see how muchof the sessionwas spent ineach zone. Eachzone is a range
of heart rates expressed as a percentage of your maximum heart rate (which is calculated based
on the age you enter in the Personal settings menu). Accept the settings with a short press of the
ENTER button, which also moves you on to the next menu item.
The default heart rates for zones 1-3 are 60-70%, 70-80%, and 80-90% of your maximum heart
rate, but if you are following a specially designed training program, enterthe zone values that have
been tailored towards your individual goals. The benefits of training ineach default zone are shown
in the table below.
