Suunto 9 - Fitness level doesn't work

@NickK yes, I would consider 70-80% right higher zones already With a run of this kind the algorithm should be triggered.

I recognized that vo2 doesn’t measures in hiking mode. Are there several walking modes vo2 doesn’t work? Is it right that you have to walk faster than 4 km/h in order to calculate vo2 max?

[isazi]

@Stefan-Kersting in hiking mode it detects VO2max for me. The S9 I mean.

@isazi I see there’s a difference between waking and hiking. When you use walking vo2 is calculated, not when hiking.

@Stefan-Kersting said in Suunto 9 - Fitness level doesn't work:

S9B calculates VO2Max during hiking for me every time… it says I’m ~30 years older than I really am, but hey - it’s still a calculation

@kabzior when using this sports mode it doesn’t

[isazi]

@Stefan-Kersting in the English watch menu this may be “trekking” and not “hiking”, and I haven’t tried that. I can confirm only that the “walking” and “hiking” have VO2Max.

That’s trekking indeed
This is hiking

[Stefan Kersting]

@isazi don’t have the English version but that’s the icon have to try the other walking sports modes then
