Introduction
Training
The
ergo_bike
makes it possible to define and control the exercise sequence yourself. It is thus
possible to adapt constantly the training plan to the capacities of the user. This device is suitable for
therapeutic use. It does not meet the requirements of medical and diagnostic usage
(in medical clinics).
Training properly
Training properly means to
load the body reasonably,
in order to
achieve the required fitness level
and to retain it
.
This ergometer has been essentially designed for endurance, agility and physical condition training and
for strengthening the heart and circulation systems and to help develop the muscular mass. The goal of
such training is to increase the capacity of the body to absorb oxygen, and to improve its overall flexibility.
The inclusion of the pulse rate in the parameters used to control the loading enables training in
the efficient aerobic zone.
Being in the aerobic zone means the muscles loading is at the exact level where they can be adequately
supplied with oxygen without overproduction of lactic acid (aching muscles). Therefore, the ergometer
bike is also a great value for sports medicine and physical education.
The fact that the training effort can be finely measured, gives you
the possibility to carry out physical stress tests to get information
on your physical condition. You can thus identify early any heart
and circulation problems and, with the help of a physician, set up
a special endurance training plan to treat them.
Training units per week
Generally speaking, training twice a week will help retain your physical condition.
To improve your fitness level you must train at least
three or four times
per week.
Therefore, the
“Coaching”
program will only make sense, and be usable, with more
than 3 training units per week.
You should consult a physician before increasing the number of weekly training units,
to avoid overloading yourself.
A lower load will not bring the required effect, while overloading can be dangerous!
A confortable and relaxed sitting posture are of great
significance for the efficiency and the benefit of the
ergo_bike
. You should not be tensed up while training.
You should wear loose sport clothes so that you don't
get into sweat too easily and are not constricted. Your
back should be straight (as opposed to the racing
posture, see fig.
B
), and your legs should still be
slightly bent at the lower pedal position. This posture
is illustrated in figure
A
. You should adjust the handlebar
and saddle height and inclination to suit your needs.
Handle in raised
position!
Sport physicians recommend preparing for training with relaxing
exercises, which can be followed by some stretching
.
exercises.
Any user who does not feel completely fit, considering either
the health or physical aptitude aspect, should prepare himself before
training with the ergometer, or consult a physician if in doubt
