5 more answers and hrv is not reliable anymore… i think most of us are not serious athletes… but i had the feeling that running in the correct zones was doable with my previous watch and it probably (99% sure) was. if not, then how many people are pretending to be doing ok when actually there are not?

@BrunoH if this is the case, then there something really broken. How come walking is producing Vo2max readings, but not running… makes no sense. I know you don’t know that, I am just thinking out loud.

@mabe2k Same. I love Vertical look. Don’t like bright titanium in Race and all black easy to scratch.

@Alonzo I understand it like this, selecting the appropriate power mode displays the battery life (which is quite reliable in the case of Suunto). When theoretically turning on the map, these values ​​will be completely unrealistic, especially with models with an AMOLED screen. If you want to have a map, you have to turn on/change the appropriate power mode with all its consequences. In my opinion, this is a good solution.

@Adam-Loomis it gives you resting HR, stress level, body resources… All those metrics that are required to trash the recovery status, and improve the potential training plans that could come in the future… But anyway, each of us has their own vision BR

I was having this issue with my most recent dive. I re-stalled the app and nothing, but as soon as i let it see location all the time instead of just while using the app they suddenly synced. I am not sure why this should make a difference.

@The_77 Heart rate zones for cycling are usually 8-10 beats lower than for running, according to statistical studies of thousands of athletes. When training for a triathlon, people do separate zone tests for running and cycling. I regularly do running tests 1-2 times a year. The person who does this told me this, and I believe him because he does this professionally I have set my zones 8 points lower than for running, and this more or less corresponds to how I feel at the same HR, for example 142 while in Z1 running and 142 while cycling are different feelings.

@Adrian.S by native, I mean that Zone Sense should become a normal selection field rather than a separate application. In this case, in order for it to be displayed in the same way as heart rate, power or pace zones

@timecode hello timecode, thank you very much! yes i agree, i don’t think i can depend much on the battery management algorithm either… we’ll see what the future holds, in the meantime, have a good life

@Adrian.S The problem is not in the pixel or the ipad, it is in the watch that can only handle one connection for the app, at least for now, but this is pretty logical with the app and is the same for other manufacturers too (at least Coros where you can only have one active app). At least with Suunto once synced with one of the devices the info in the ipad and the pixel will be the same. It is known that Suunto is working on improving the sensor connections to be able to have more than one, but I do not know if this will affect the app connection too.

To be honest a lot of watches struggle with HR measurement during biking, some more, some less. I would get a HR chest or arm strap.

I have the same Problem. After a Hard Reset is Work for 5 days. Sinne yesterday no sleep Tracking again

@Brad_Olwin And I like Suunto running power more than on Garmin, because I got similar numbers as on bike with 4iii power meter according to my feelings. Garmin is about 100W higher.

Happened to me once in 2 years with Vertical. I had S+ app enabled (Virtual UTMB), but no navigation. Not sure if related, but never used that app after, also no restarts.

@VaineRT I have the same Problem. After a Hard Reset is Work for 5 days. Sinne yesterday no sleep Tracking again

@brechtvb yeah, but the Forerunner has 5 buttons As I said, short press the lower button and you are where you can set DND and alarm clocks. I guess this will ease you struggle to find things…

@isazi said in Is ZoneSense intelligent across different activity types?: @raven each sport should have its own thresholds, I guess what’s confusing is the mix of ZoneSense and traditional thresholds that unfortunately Suunto could not avoid because people have been using HR thresholds for decades now. Ok, good to know there’s no harm to the algorithms if one wears the strap all the time; thanks! Also, in yesterday’s sessions, I did several things back to back. After that kickboxing session, I did some weight training, leaving the strap on. What’s interesting about this is that ZoneSense took another ten minutes to start up; the session was only about fifteen minutes so not much data there for ZS, but my question is more on back-to-back activities in general. I don’t have a source at the moment — perhaps it is the larger ZS thread in this forum — but I was under the impression if one wanted to, for example do a 5km running race effort, then one could do a ten minute warmup as a separate session to get ZoneSense started, then end that session and start the main workout. That is, two sessions overall: one at ten minutes staying z2 and under, then do the 5km run. I have not tried this yet. Either that’s not right at all, and ZS needs ten minutes calibration for every session, regardless of the time of last session, or it only works if the two back-to-back sessions are the same modality, or I’ve discovered a bug and ZS should have been on for the entirety of my strength workout that followed my kickboxing yesterday. Any thoughts on this situation?
