Suunto 5 3. Features 3.1. Activity monitoring Your watch keeps track of your overall activity level throughout the day. This is an important factor whether you just aim to be fit and healthy or you are training for an upcoming competition. It is good to be active, but when training hard, you need to have proper rest days with low activity. The activity counter automatically resets at midnight every day. At the end of the week, the watch provides a summary of your activity.
Suunto 5 When setting your steps goal, you define the total number of steps for the day. The total calories you burn per day is based on two factors: your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) and your physical activity. Your BMR is the amount of calories your body burns while at rest. These are the calories your body needs to stay warm and perform basic function like blink your eyes or beat your heart. This number is based on your personal profile, including factors such as age and gender.

With the daily HR feature on, your watch activates the optical heart rate sensor on a regular basis to check your heart rate. This slightly increases battery power consumption.
Suunto 5 However, even with the best accuracy, GPS altitude should not be considered an absolute position.

Workouts in this zone can be performed either at constant speed or as interval training (combinations of shorter training phases with intermittent breaks).
