VO2 Max
-
@akos-hajas so there are various things that do not work on your watch
Maybe also contact support, they may know more. -
@isazi do you know why this isn’t stored and written back to the watch from the app? Same for resources, historical HR etc?
Personally, the V02 max is more realistic (read lower) than the 9B but it’s silly to me that they report different values at all.
-
@stromdiddily because it’s computed on the watch, with the code licensed from Firstbeat. I hope that in the future the watches will be able to retrieve some info from the app (already the setup is simpler now), so that switching watches will become easier.
-
@isazi how can I install the Software new on the watch?
-
-
-
@isazi I know that…but I want to install the Software what I have now on my watch new
-
@egika just hoping, if I knew something I would not comment
-
-
@isazi I reset the watch and now is working everything normal…
-
@richard-thygesen I get the VO2 worth but it is very different from Coros or Garmin Fenix 6. With the last two watches I usually have a VO2 of 44 to 45. With the S9 Peak I have 39 … I hope that I will adjust that
-
@sascha-domres ok, I came from another brand before my S9 non baro and decreased my VO2max alot. It has slowly increased but it’s nowhere near the value I had with the other brand.
-
@sascha-domres I can add that if i do intervall traning with high pulse the watch always increase my vo2max but decrease it on slower runs.
-
@richard-thygesen same here… I have 40 to 42 with Garmin and other devices with firstbeat algorithms like the Huawei GT 2e,
then comes polar with 39 and then Suunto with 38
(and I am exactly as fit as my age is
) .But since it’s only an estimated value from your running metrics and not really analysed in a lab I find it quite close in average and on Suunto it reflects me getting fitter since I started running last year in summer, where I got 35
-
I don’t know about other brands, but my values are pretty consistent across my Suunto watches (Ambit 3 peak, Suunto 9 Baro and Suunto 9 Peak)
53-55
I used the Ambit 3 and S9B with a HR belt and the S9P with OHR.
-
@surfboomerang my values are in line between S9 baro and peak, and also Garmin watches.
-
When determining the vo2max it can differ.
Example:
on other watches you did a good relaxed session
On your new watch you have not done that
-
Out of interest from reading this, has anyone here done an actual VO2max test in a lab?.. if so what is the difference between lab vs watch? I have done a few lab tests and Suunto watch shows the same for me.
-
i did 58 in lab
with s9b I got 68 65 62 -
@zhang965 slowly converging
