How to determine your zones and thresholds

We automatically update your zones and thresholds from your in-activity HRV data using DFA a1. Your Suunto watch automatically records your HRV data if you wear a high quality heart rate strap such as the Suunto Smart Sensor.

If you want to assess your zones and thresholds right away you can perform a simple ramp test in Suunto Guides with only a few steps:

DFA alpha 1 ramp test
  • Go to the AI Endurance Apps page
  • Click "Push Ramp Test to Suunto"
  • A ramp test will be scheduled for today on your Suunto Guides immediately
  • After the test, you will be prompted to confirm your zones with your newly detected HRV values in the AI Endurance dashboard

It is important for constructive training to have your training zones set correctly. AI Endurance takes out the guesswork by continuously monitoring your training zones. By utilizing the most recent research in HRV, we can set these parameters without the need of a physiology lab. You only need to wear a heart rate strap that records high quality HRV data.
