2.4.3. Training sessions

The Coach generates a training program for the next 5 days. The program maintains a balance
between workout and rest, and a variation between easy and hard, long and short workouts for
the best progress.

Each workout has a target Training Effect and a recommended duration. The Training Effect targets
for the next 5 days are shown as a bar graph in the center of the Coach display. To check the
exact recommendations for the next days, you can move with + and - buttons.

The Coach display
alternates every 2
seconds between the
Training Effect target
and the duration.

To activate the recommendation as your target workout, press the MODE button and then press
START to begin training. Your Suunto t4 starts guiding you to the target Training Effect in the re-
commended time. See more information about the guidance available during your workout in
Section 4. Training.

Although the coach gives recommendations about intensity and duration, the sessions are not
tightly restricted. To achieve each session's goal you can choose to train at a higher or lower in-
tensity or for more or less time. However, it is worth remembering that improving fitness requires
patience, and the recommendations given by the Coach are optimized for progress, based on
your own training history.
