Listen to Suunto M4 Review
Suunto M4 Men
A Suunto M4 heart monitor is the perfect balance between style and function. The woman's versions are some of the nicest looking
heart monitor products we have ever seen anywhere. Combined with a super comfortable and supple dual comfort belt that stays in place,
these watches are sure to be a big hit over the next year.
This heart monitor gives you real-time training advice. You can set your goals up to include fitness improvement, weight loss,
or even customize your own workout. This heart monitor stores up to 4 weeks of data and you can transfer it all to Suunto's new super
cool training software called Movescount with a Suunto Movestick, which we highly recommend that you purchase as an option.
Any Suunto M4 measures calories burned, heart rate and gives you training advice before, during and after your
exercise with a nice summary.This device also adjusts future workouts based upon your previous workouts intensity giving you the
finest in guidance.
The Suunto M4 also has a built in stopwatch and works great as an everyday watch with its great styling and time and date display,
plus alarms. If you are looking for a good general fitness heart monitor that gives you guidance and feedback it doesn't get much
better than this, plus you don't have to take it off after you are done working out.
A watch that gives you a workout program for the next week based upon your goals and your previous workouts intensity has value in
our opinion.
For weight loss understanding the correct intensity and seeing your total calories burned for the entire workout can be extremely
motivating. For general aerobic fitness, knowing your zones and receiving alerts based upon intensity will also help get you where
you need to be.
Rusty Tries The Suunto M4
What really blew me away about the Suunto M4 was the incredible comfort of the chest strap. Suunto really has this strap
comfort thing figured out.
The other thing was just how slip proof the strap actually was. Suunto uses a slight rubberized coating on either side of
the sternum, so this strap just does not move around, even when you get dripping wet.
The start up sequence on this heart monitor was real easy to use, much more so then the T3 and T6 series monitors.
What is really a plus, especially for those with aging eyes, is the fact that the font size on the displayed heart rate
is extra large. It makes the current heart rate a lot easier to read, regardless of the activity.
The summary display and advise on the watch following the workout was also good but we never did have the time during
out test to download the data to Suunto's new Movescount software. I know this software was developed by Training Peaks, one
of the most respected names in training management software, so we would really like to test drive this soon and will report
back when we do.
All in all we felt like most fitness enthusiasts would be pretty happy with the M4, especially if they would like to use it as
their everyday watch as Suunto has always had superior everyday styling.
