      Question, if it can be shared is Suunto working on the ability to switch between complications by tapping the complication on the screen (like how it was before the Q2 update)? I miss having the ability to switch between complications on the watch face, it was much more convenient to tap the complications than to scroll down to see steps, sunset time, etc. I realize there was a trade off of having custom complications or generic watch faces but I can’t help but think there would be a way to make a watch face that could do both (I.e. customize which X number of complications to cycle through a complication spot on the watch face). At this point I would rather have the original uncustomizable Suunto Race watch face than the one that just shows three complications.

        Weird bug today, I pressed lap button but It went to pause menu like on previous firmware (no play/stop buttons on screen) - first oprion was to end activity with a yellow banner on top saying ‘undefined’ - is this js? 😄 I tried twice and then left with no lap… it was custom cycling mode, S+ Suunto ZoneSense and TrainingPeaks - Ride with route navigation. Unfortunately I didn’t send logs as I forgot, I was quite dead after the ride. I’ll try next time with same settings if it helps.

              “Improved capability to determine VO2Max. Should be easier to get the estimate now.” -> Did it get any easier for anyone? It’s still a no-show for me on Vertical even after 15 months. For comparison, S9B back then was a piece of cake. Down below you can see my latest running attempt.

              Is there an updated list of certified requirements? I know I am fat and in bad shape, but I think I did fulfill all the requirements Suunto support listed me back a year ago. 15 minutes in or above Z3 with flawless GPS and HR. Well I can’t be sure about the flawlessness, but they both look good to me in Suunto App.

              Does my run have to be above certain constant speed?
              Can I even get the estimate with over 120 kg weight?
              Am I supposed to hit the start button after I reach the red zone?
              How long does it have to be? Time, km?

              The downward spikes are there because I just had to slow down a few times… 😞 Yeah yeah, I know it is just an estimate anyway and I should forget this stupid measure. But I have such fond memories: it used to correlate with my jogging feeling back then with S9B and I found it highly motivating to get the estimate up one decimal at a time. I hate it when either I am too stupid to use Vertical, or Vertical doesn’t want to co-operate as marketed.

                @BrunoH Not sure, but all I can say is that for me my Vo2max went down on my first run after the upgrade. I get however readings after every run.

                  @BrunoH not sure neither, but if the criteria is like “15 min in or above…”, this activity is quite at the fringe of the criteria.

                    @BrunoH I have had no issues since having the watch on release day - through all the updates it all just keeps working 🙂

                      @Mff73 you are right, but not all of my runs are this pathetic. It is funny though, I got a set of instructions from the support long time ago but tje field testers in this forum were publising different rules! (I’ve been following VO2max discussions closely.)

                      Which brings me to my next point: documentation is way too vague. Too often the user manual sounds more like marketing material. More thorough explanations would take pressure off from the support engineers. Just sayin’

                          @BrunoH Overall however, your zones seem to be somehow strange - last zone which should be really for maximum effort is much broader than any of the three previous zones.

                            @kriskus that is because I am old, fat and in bad shape. I get to Z5 very fast. Maybe that’s the reason why I am not getting the estimate. My poor Vertical doesn’t believe there are guys like me 🙂

                            Perhaps I should try longer exercises by walking a bit faster instead of running because it exhausts me too easily.

                              i am not an expert, but whatever the shape and the zones, Z5 should not be that huge. How much is your max HR ? You seems to be able to reach 180+ bpm while your Z5 seems to begin at 150/155, quite strange.

                                @Mff73 I used a Norwegian University (NTNU) max HR calculator which takes into account the age, weight and how tall I am. According to that my max HR is 176 and that’s what I entered in my Vertical, but obviously in real life I can get over 176. My resting HR is set to 65, which is the value when I am sitting peacefully.

                                All the zone limits in between are the default values from Suunto.

                                max 176 100%
                                Z5 starts at 153 87%
                                Z4 starts at 144 81%
                                Z3 starts at 136 77%
                                Z2 starts at 127 71%

                                Have I configured something wrong?

                                  @BrunoH I had some trouble getting my head around all of this… So I started reading some of the material on the suunto website.

                                  https://www.suunto.com/it-it/sports/News-Articles-container-page/Figure-out-your-training-zones-and-supercharge-your-fitness/

                                  https://www.suunto.com/it-it/sports/News-Articles-container-page/know-your-resting-and-max-heart-rates/

                                  All in all… the generic formula does not work well. You have to make personalised stress tests to get the limits. Now with ZoneSense there is the argument that you can use this new inovative feature, and it will start reporting the thresholds for you without the need to perform and put yourself through the testing process.

                                    If the HR detected by the watch is correct, then your max HR should be at least 185 as you peaked over the 180 mark a few times. Those calculators are not that good at this. It’s hard to tell your real max HR without the lab test, but 185 should probably be close.

                                      Thank you everybody, I will adjust my max HR and the zones accordingly. I’ll try again in a few days.

                                        @BrunoH I got a little stressed about all this at the beginning… but stopped worrying about my MAX Hr, and looked more closely at the LTHR value and then worked backwards from there.

                                        I based my LTHR on hard run efforts at 5km and 10km distances (as I repeat these periodically as part of my standard training approach).

                                        The new innovative ZoneSense feature (Suunto +App) is giving me relatively close LIMITS to what I had set so all in all it seems to add up.

                                        Plus I got the Hr Belt from Suunto to try and get the most accurate readings possible.

                                        PS. I am a Male / 38Years old / LTHR = 165bpm (approx) and have a 182MAX HR according to the formula… but do not even come close to that during maxed out efforts (measuring with the HR belt).

                                        But even if the data is not absolute, because there will always be some error in the measurements (we do not carry medical devices on our wrists) as long as it is repeatable we can use it as a baseline for general imrpvement metrics. Which is the goal of everyone I think… Personal improvement both physically and mentaly.

                                        Have a nice day everyone.

                                          as @SvenSchroeter suggested, if you are using a chest strap with RR capabilities, you could try ZoneSense analysis while changing your zone.
                                          Maybe set them as appropriately as possible with reasonable max HR according to your recent real max reached (you real max should probably be little more, but …) and then look at what zonesense is “telling” you. After a couple of trainings, (even if Zonesense is still quite unknown 😉 ) it might give you its indication of what YOUR zones could be. Up to you to correlate then with your feelings during activity ,etc… and tweak everything (if not doing real effort tests).
                                          Enjoy your next fit journey.

                                            There may be a bug with the sounds for messages.

                                            When I switch my race s tones/alarm to vibration, I still get a beep for incoming messages.

                                            Or have I just not found the right setting?
