Maximize the effectiveness of your workouts with real-time Training Effect

More than a heart rate monitor, the lightweight Suunto t3 helps you train with confidence by providing you with real-time information on the aerobic benefit of each workout. Runners, bikers, kayakers, and other sports enthusiasts will appreciate the Suunto t3's combination of robust technology and versatile style.

What if you could glance at your wrist and see the total aerobic benefit of your workout in real-time? You'd know how much harder to push and for how long. Based on your personal fitness profile, the Suunto t3 delivers essential feedback on your aerobic activities - heart rate, calories burned, and zone training information. You can also add real-time speed and distance data by combining the Suunto t3 with optional Suunto PODs. To ensure your workout data is accurate, the Suunto t3 is digitally coded for interference-free transmission.

By monitoring your Training Effect (TE), Suunto t3 takes the guesswork out of effective training. Using data from your personal fitness profile, the Suunto t3 analyzes your physiological progress, and translates the data into a simple, one-to-five TE scale.
