Suunto T4 c £126.00

The Suunto T4 comfort is the third model in the New Suunto T (training) series. Aimed at those who are serious about their training. The Suunto T4 features the Suunto Coach which generates a 5-day plan for improving your aerobic condition. Employing Training Effect technology, it tells you which days to workout with information on duration and intensity. It will also decide which days you need to take a rest. A great tool for those who really want to improve.

The T4 comfort has exactly the same software features as the original T4 but has a revised face and of course the comfort HR belt. The face of the Suunto T4 comfort has been de-cluttered. The graduations on the heart rate and training effect are gone leaving a much cleaner face with less writing on it. The button labels are also de-emphasized. The new comfort heart rate belt is a real break through in training watches and monitors. Gone is the rigid plactic strap that every HRM for the past 15 years has used, and which never fitted those with smaller diameter chests. It has been replaced by a completely flexible HR belt with a small disc in the centre that holds the battery and circuitry.

Suunto say -' It's good to have a goal. And it's even better to have a plan. Designed for athletes in training, the Suunto t4 monitors your progress and makes intelligent workout recommendations for frequency, duration and intensity. Whether you accept or decline a recommended workout, the Suunto T4 continues to adapt, maintaining an up-to-date plan for your athletic success.

Using the Suunto Coach feature, the Suunto T4 generates a 5-day plan for improving your aerobic condition. Employing Training Effect technology, it tells you which days to workout with information on duration and intensity.

If you accept a recommended workout, the Suunto T4 will guide you through the session to make sure you receive the proper training load. If you decline a recommended workout in favor of a rest day or a non-recommended workout, the Suunto T4 will continue to monitor and adapt, adjusting your 10-day plan accordingly.'

The Suunto T4 comes in 2 versions
Suunto T4 comfort Black Volcano (2 piece rubber strap, fire coloured inner display, positive face)
Suunto T4 comfort Black Frost (2 piece narrow black rubber strap, black inner ring with slight colour and positive face)
The Black Frost is nominally from the 'Female Series' because of the narrow strap but the watch body and functions are identical to the other version.

All the straps for the T1, T3 and T4 are interchangeable so you have a massive choice of strap style and colour.

Reviewer: Jake Herbert (Staff) ,Otley   (19-6-2008 )
I started a new fitness regime about 6 months ago. I am 38, always been a keen skier and mountain biker but never "really fit" . I wanted a HRM to improve my gym sessions, and thought I would try the T4.

To be honest I was a bit skeptical about the Coach function but thought I would try it out. I have been very impressed with the T4 firstly the TE (Training Effect) values give you an idea of the effectiveness of the sessions. The "Coach" takes a while to figure out your routine and stamina levels- for the first 5 or 6 sessions you are basically teaching the T4 about yourself. After it has been set up the Coach gives recommendations on each days workouts, attempting to maximise your benefit from each session. What I found was:

Positives
1) I found the Suunto T4 to be a great motivator. "Suunto Coach says do a session of Training effect 4 today" So I go to the gym, or out on my bike when otherwise I might have found excuses. Further when I am doing a session I will generally be much more focussed at getting the correct workout. So I put more effort in. I think owning any Heart Rate monitor will improve your motivation, but the Coaching functions of the T4 really does push me to do more.
2) After a few days hard effort the Suunto T4 Coach tells you when to rest. Knowing when to rest is very important and not as intuitive as you might think, and I believe it has improved my training.

Negatives
If you don't record a session the T4 doesn't know about it. This is obvious, but if a big part of your routine is swimming then the T4 will struggle to maximise your training since you cannot wear the HRM whilst swimming. Overall I think the Suunto T4 Coach is a useful function for someone like me. If you are more professional in your training then you won't need it. But for anyone lacking motivation, or requiring a training discipline, it will be a great purchase.
