Suunto M Series.
The Suunto M series is now available in Australia. After a couple of months of waiting we received our shipment of M series heart rate monitors in the shop. As I expected they all look great. I know a good looking heart rate monitor like this will be a great Christmas present.
The range is the M1, M2, M4 and the M5
M1 & M2
offer you
• Real-time guidance: heart rate and calories burned
• Suunto M1 comes with comfortable Suunto basic Heart Rate Belt, compatible with most gym cardio equipment.
• Suunto M2 comes with Suunto Dual Comfort Belt: comfortable textile belt, compatible with most gym cardio equipment and Suunto Fitness Solution
The M1 and M2 and entry level heart rate monitor. Perfect for people starting or getting back into exercise. They are fairly basic but provide all the information you require to keep track fitness sessions
M4
• Fitness Test
• 3 personal targets to choose from – improving fitness, weight management or free training
• Daily exercise instructions with ideal duration and intensity
• Automatically adapting exercise program for the next 7 days
• Motivational feedback messages
The M4 starts to show the Suunto ingenuity. You set you fitness goals and the M4 will provide and ideal weekly workout schedule to help you achieve them. If you miss a training session it will automatically adjust the programme so you can still achieve those goals. I think the motivational feedback messages will be great for those of us that struggle with motivation.
M5
• 3 personal targets to choose from – improving fitness, weight management or free training
• Daily exercise instructions with ideal duration and intensity
• Automatically adapting exercise program for the next 7 days
• Real-time intensity guidance during workout
• Recovery time recommendation after exercise
• Motivational feedback messages
• Download any training program from Movescount.com (with optional Suunto Movestick)
• Track speed & distance (with optional Suunto Foot POD, Bike POD and GPS POD)
The M5, similar to the M4 the M5 will provide and adjust your training sessions to meet you fitness goals & will provide the motivational messages. However the M5 is also compatible with all the Suunto pod, so you can easily turn it in to a cycling computer, use a foot pod to measure speed and distance while running or a GPS pod to measure speed and distance no matter what you’re doing as long as its outdoors.
