Suunto t6c Training Heart-Rate Monitor Watch - Black
Owning the Suunto t6c Training Heart-Rate Monitor Watch is like having access to your own sports laboratory.
The ultimate complete heart-rate monitor and multi-function timepiece, the Suunto t6c is a professional-grade tool for monitoring, analysing and optimising your training.
Whatever your ability level, the Suunto t6c has something for you, whether you are a beginner, fitness enthusiast or a serious professional athlete the t6c is an essential exercise tool.
Featuring an Altimeter function, the Suunto t6c will monitor your climbing or hill performance to know how your body will react when training at various altitudes.
The Suunto t6c utilises Training Effect, a quick and accurate measurement of how hard your body's working at any given moment, so you can easily find that sweet spot for getting the most out of each workout.
Even more accurate and versatile measure of extertion than your heart rate, Training Effect keeps you on-target for achieving your goals, whether it's weight loss, cardiovascular health or shaving minutes off a marathon.
Using data from your personal fitness profile, the Suunto t6c will analyse your heartbeat and translates the data into a simple, one-to-five Training Effect scale. If, for example, you want to improve your aerobic fitness at a moderate tempo, you should work out until your TE meter reads 3.0 to 3.9 (2 to 4 times weekly). Data is displayed in real time on the t6c HRM using the easy to understand scale from 1 to 5.
The Suunto t6c is the first product to give you a read-out of your EPOC - your excess post-exercise oxygen consumption level, previously this was information only available in laboratories. EPOC lets you measure and adjust your training loads to ensure that your body is safely getting the most from each workout.
Regular exercise contributes to your good health and helps you reach and maintain your target weight. Working from your personalised fitness profile, the t6c provides essential feedback from your aerobic activities - heart rate, calories burned and zone training information.
Reaching your goals can be tough, it takes the right tools, knowledge and guidance to be able to improve with each training session. Use the Suunto t6c and Suunto comfort belt with the included Suunto Training Manager PC software to get a detailed analysis of seven physiological parameters.
Suunto Training Manager is an integral part of the Suunto t6c experience, it stores and organises training sessions, allowing athletes to analyse their performance.
Athletes can view their performance over a single workout or a specific period of time, with a detailed analysis of seven different body parameters including:
EPOC-based Training Effect (1-5 scale describing the result of the cumulative aerobic load of the training session)
Respiration Rate (breaths per minute)
Respiration Volume (litres/minute)
Oxygen Consumption (VO2, ml/kg/min)
Energy Expenditure (kcal)
Calculations are based on beat-to-beat analysis and heart rate variability.
Equipped with a Suunto Foot, GPS, Bike and/or Cadence POD, the program allows Suunto t6c users to evaluate their performance in terms of:
Speed
Distance
Cadence
Altitude
The Suunto t6c is also supplied with the new Suunto Comfort Belt (hence the 'c' in t6c), is compatible with the new cadence POD and also has a customisable screen layout for individual information needs.
Using digital ANT transmission, the Suunto t6c can be securely paired to the Suunto Comfort Belt or an optional Suunto POD without fear of crosstalk interference.
The Suunto t6c incorporates a watch, chronometer with stopwatch, lap and interval timer, altimeter, thermometer and barometer as well as a heart-rate monitor.
Germany's Runner's World, one of the leading running magazines in the world, tested a range of distance trackers in November 2008. Of the six models tested, the jury rewarded Suunto t6c and Foot POD with the title "Runner's World Test Winners".
