P-09: Pyramid climb
Pyramid climb: (30-minute default)
Gradual increases in intensity during training are ideal for stimulating your body to
improve overall cardiovascular fitness, whereby the muscle cell growth in the stressed
muscles is maximized. The pyramid climb was designed in order to begin with a
very slow speed and gradually increase intensity to the peak and finally to gradually
return to the initial level. During the peak intensity, you maximize your calories burnt
whereby your body can train longer and still profit from the higher intensity if you
slowly decrease the intensity again and return to the initial level.
P-10: Climb plateau
Climb plateau: (30-minute default)
The climb plateau training delivers you all of the advantages of consistent training,
but motivates you to maintain a higher, consistent intensity level. You can improve
your overall health and fitness and simultaneously slowly and comfortably bring
yourself to a higher overall training intensity. Remember that if you simply use your
treadmill with the same speed and same training duration every day, your body will
only improve to the level that you have created. In order to improve your overall
health and fitness, you always have to change your exercises so that you do not do
the same workout the entire week. Slowly increase your overall training intensity and
simultaneously your entire training duration.
