      There is also metabolic rate included that is included in pauses. (Total time).

      I am asking why PTE etc are cal;culated during pauses

        Here is fit file if this can help. Exported directly from suunto app.

        I did exactly this:

        Started excercise (indoor light excercise with WHR).
        Paused excercise after 7 minutes and took watch off my wrist.
        After some time, don’t know exact time but 10-40minuts I stoped already paused excercise.

        Funny part that only from 7 minutes of light excercise I shoud rest 7 hours and from same excercise later but longer 14 minutes I should rest 0 hours. Something definitely wrong here.

          @tomas5 yeah pauses are included in the HR calculation. In a way this is normal because HR does get recorded during a pause, but not sure if that is expected.

          Also the FIT file has clipped the data outside pauses for partners

            @tomas5 I got an answer. This is by design. CAlories doe get accounted during a pause if WHR is used as the calories come from the HR

              @dimitrios-kanellopoulos makes sense really. It’s not like our body stops because we clicked pause.

              Let’s say you go running in the mountains for 6 hours, and you had a 30 min break in the middle. Your body would still probably be working pretty hard during that rest, and that should probably be taken into account.

                @aleksander-h the key here is HR based I suppose. I am not sure if I am 100% agreeing with this but also sounds logical

                  Personally I think the problem here is there isn’t a clear cut right and wrong. It’s more a subjective opinion. In my mind it makes sense, but I totally get why others would disagree.

                    @aleksander-h Yes it makes perfect sense while some activity, but I was doing really low power stretching like excercises. With low average HR, low maximum HR and low effort 😄 while another days when I do this excercise uninterupted I burn around 150 - 200 kcal so it was really too much off when I saw 325 only from 7 minutes of ligtest part of excercise.

                      but maybe WHR measurements while watch not worn are not so relieable 🙂 thus calories neither 🙂 (like some users were able to measure bananas HR).
                      So it is really a use case … specific.

                        @mff73 yes, I expected zero reading when off wrist.

                        Edited: now it is confirmed that HR made some high readings when off wrist and thats reason for high calories and PTE.
