2.3 Viewing your training history

Viewing training totals

While the log recorder is running, your Suunto heart rate monitor records data about
the training session, such as heart rate activity and calories burned. You can view the
training totals by pressing [Lap +] in

TIME

mode. Scroll through the time periods using

[Lap +] and [Light -]. Scroll through totals for the period using [View Back] and [Mode].

Using the logbook (t3c, t4c)

In addition to training totals, you can save logs of each training session. To view the
logbook, press [Start Stop] in

TIME

mode. Scroll through the logged sessions using [View

Back] and [Mode]. Scroll through session data using [Lap +] and [Light -].

2.4 Measuring your training intensity

Training with heart rate monitors is traditionally based on heart rate zones. The intensity
of your training is determined by the time you spend in each of three zones. All Suunto
heart rate monitors support zone training.
To provide even more useful and accurate guidance, Suunto t3c and t4c also use a
different measurement called Training Effect. This measurement determines the impact
of a training session on your aerobic fitness using a simple 1-to-5 scale. See your User
Guide for more information on heart rate zones and Training Effect.
