Suunto T6d Heart Monitor w/ FOOT POD

Suunto T6d heart monitor with Foot POD:

The Suunto t6d measures heart rate, caloric burn, and exercise intensity. The Suunto t6d assesses your current fitness, optimizes training load, measures your fitness gain over time, and helps you achieve your overall fitness goals.

Features:
* ANT transmission heart rate monitor belt provides interference free HR monitoring.
* Training Effect to monitor your aerobic conditioning level.
* 30 logs of memory. Save all of your logs, or just selected ones.
* Includes a USB cable and software to transfer workout data to your PC.
* Measures real time calories burned.
* Tracks speed and distance when paired with Suunto POD (Peripheral Observation Device).
* Altimeter measures altitude.

What Does the t6d do?

Training Effect: Any physical trainer will tell you that in order to maximize the impact of your workouts you need to train hard enough to make a difference, but not so hard that you injure yourself. Without a personal trainer to advise you, an optimal training range is exceedingly difficult to figure out because your target training zone will change as your fitness level improves. Suunto's exclusive Training Effect feature tells you whether you're training too little, too hard or staying within the zones for optimal performance. Training Effect uses a simple one - to - five scale to display how intense your workout is based on your current fitness level. And with alarms, you'll know as soon as you hit your limit.

Interference Free Heart Rate Monitoring:
The ANT heart rate belt provides interference free HR monitoring anywhere and everywhere, remedying problems associated with previous HR monitors that were affected by power lines outside or electronic equipment inside the gym, making the t6d a valuable investment for those who love to train outdoors as well as in.

Activity Class:
The Activity Class rates your current activity levels so that your Suunto watch knows your baseline activity level.

30 Log Memory:
Record a personal training log of statistical data that reflects the progression of your aerobic health and performance capacity. And choose whether to save all of your logs or just select ones.

Track Data on Your PC:
The Suunto t6d comes complete with a USB cable and Suunto Training Manager Software needed to track fitness progress on your PC. Suunto's easy-to-use PC analysis software combines EPOC (Excess Post-exercise Oxygen Consumption) training data with your personal background info. Calculating seven different physiological parameters, including oxygen consumption, energy consumption, heart rate, and respiratory rate, the program automatically monitors your progress and continues to recommend training loads appropriate to your changing fitness level.

Track Speed and Distance (with a Suunto POD):
With a POD for runners, bicyclers and adventurers, your Suunto t6d watch tracks speed and distance during workouts. Want to purchase your t6d with a POD? Choose a t6d training pack, including the Suunto Cycling Pack, Suunto Running Pack, and the GPS enabled Multisport Pack.

Who is the Suunto t6d best for?
Runners, triathletes, spinners, mountain bikers, and anyone getting into shape benefits from the Suunto t6d. The Suunto t6d maximizes your fitness routine by providing up to the second information on your workouts. And with handy features like a lock button to prevent pressing the wrong button during your workout, the Suunto t6d is easy to use.
