3.1.2 Fitness METs level

Fitness METs (metabolic equivalents) value shows how much energy your body is able

to consume compared to the energy consumption at rest. Roughly, the better your

fitness level, the higher your maximum MET value is. Suunto t6c suggests a default

fitness METS level, but if you know your real METs, you should use that value.

NOTE: The maximum performance capacity measured in a laboratory test is sometimes

given as ml oxygen/kg/min (VO

max). If you want to compare the maximum performance

capacity calculated by the program in METs to your measured VO

max, use the relation 1

MET = 3.5 ml/min/kg.

3.2 Units settings

The UNITS settings define measurement units, as well as time and date format. You

should define these according to your own preferences.
