Why Training Effect is important
If your workouts are too easy, your aerobic condition won’t improve. Likewise, if your workouts are too difficult, you run the risk of overtraining and hindering improvement. Between those extremes, it’s difficult to gauge the effectiveness of a workout on gut-feeling alone.

Training Effect takes the guesswork out of working out, giving you real-time and post-exercise information about the effectiveness of your workout.

During exercise, Training Effect shows the real-time effectiveness of your workout. After exercise, Training Effect displays the final degree to which a workout improved your condition.

How Training Effect works
Training Effect is based on *EPOC measurements during exercise, combined with information about your current fitness level and exercise history. *EPOC (Excess Post-exercise Oxygen Consumption) is a scientifically sound measure of training load.

Training Effect uses a straightforward, one-to-five scale. Here’s what it means:

Training Effect Category	Results	Explanation
1.0 - 1.9	Training Effect: minor	Enhances recovery. Can develop endurance base with sessions longer than one hour. Does not improve maximum performance.
2.0 -2.9	Training Effect: maintenance	Maintains aerobic fitness. Helps build foundation for harder training in the future. Does little to improve maximum performance.
3.0 - 3.9	Training Effect: improvement	Improves aerobic fitness if repeated 2 to 4 times weekly. No special recovery requirements.
4.0 - 4.9	Training Effect: rapid improvement	Rapidly improves aerobic fitness if repeated 1 to 2 times weekly. Augment with a few recovery sessions (TE 1.0 - 2.0).
5.0 - up	Training Effect: overreaching	Dramatic increase in aerobic fitness if combined with substantial recovery.

Training with TE targets
The Training Effect target is a simple yet powerful tool for achieving your workout goal. Suppose you want to go on a run that maintains your current level of aerobic fitness. Based on information in the user manual, you should set your Suunto to a TE target of 2.5. As your run progresses, the Suunto shows the remaining time at your current level of excursion for achieving your target. What’s more, as your excursion level changes during the run, the Suunto recalculates accordingly.
