Suunto 9 3. Features 3.1. Activity monitoring Your watch keeps track of your overall activity level throughout the day. This is an important factor whether you just aim to be fit and healthy or you are training for an upcoming competition. It is good to be active, but when training hard, you need to have proper rest days with low activity. The activity counter automatically resets at midnight every day.
Suunto 9 Activity goals You can adjust your daily goals for both steps and calories. While in the activity display, tap and hold your finger on the screen or keep the middle button pressed to open the activity goal settings. When setting your steps goal, you define the total number of steps for the day. The total calories you burn per day is based on two factors: your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) and your physical activity. Your BMR is the amount of calories your body burns while at rest.
Suunto 9 If you record an exercise, the daily HR values reflect the elevated heart rate and calorie consumption from your training. But keep in mind that the graph and consumption rates are averages. If your heart rate peaks at 200 bpm while exercising, the graph does not show that maximum value, but rather the average from the 24 minutes during which you hit that peak rate. Before you can see the daily HR display values, you need to activate the daily HR feature.
Suunto 9 3.4. Autopause Autopause pauses the recording of your exercise when your speed is less than 2 km/h (1.2 mph). When your speed increases to more than 3 km/h (1.9 mph), the recording continues automatically. You can turn autopause on/off for each sport mode the sport mode settings in the watch before you start your exercise recording. If autopause is on during a recording, a pop-up notifies you when the recording is paused automatically.
