Using the average heart rate in training
In the Training Mode, the real-time average heart rate of the current lap can be
displayed on the bottom row. You can use the training effect calculator of the Suunto
Training Manager software to define the time and average heart rate needed for the
desired physiological training effect. If you train close to the calculated average heart
rate within the targeted total time, you will reach the desired training effect in the best
possible way. The average heart rate is also a useful measure during training where
the heart rate levels vary a lot, such as biking in hilly terrain. In these cases the target
zone limits are less practical than the average heart rate training.
Starting your training and stopwatch
You can start your training by:
• Pressing START/STOP in the Training or SPD/DST modes and thus activating the
Stopwatch.
• Using the countdown function, which upon reaching zero automatically starts the
stopwatch and log.
If the Countdown function is on, number is displayed on the right hand side of the
display.
Training possibilities
You can make the most out of your training by choosing the most suitable training
method in your Suunto t6. The use of time or distance intervals and heart rate limits
can greatly contribute to the overall effectiveness of your training.
