your fitness level is below average, the exercise program guides you towards
the fair fitness level first, before moving towards good. That way you can build
a solid fitness base without the risk of overtraining. As your physical condition
improves, the frequency, duration, and intensity of the exercise sessions
recommended by your Suunto M5 will increase. After you reach the excellent
fitness level, your Suunto M5 exercise program helps you in maintaining the
