Pace Zones - Suunto 9 Peak User Manual

Suunto 9 Peak
Your watch alerts you when you hit your selected target zone. During your exercise the watch
will prompt you to speed up or slow down, if your heart rate is outside the selected target
zone.
In addition, there is a dedicated display for HR zones in the sport mode default display. The
zone display shows your current HR zone in the middle field, how long you have been in that
zone, and how far away you are in beats per minute to the next zones up or down. The
background color of the bar also indicates which HR zone you are training in.
In the exercise summary, you get a breakdown of how much time you have spent in each
zone.

4.14.2. Pace zones

Pace zones work just like HR zones but the intensity of your training is based on your pace
instead of your heart rate. The pace zones are shown either as metric or imperial value
depending on your settings.
Suunto 9 Peak has five default pace zones that you can use or you can define your own.
Pace zones are available for running and cycling.
