3. Training process
The system displays the message shown to the right the next time the
Coaching function is called and before the display of the training units selectio
n. It is confirmed by pressing the control button. The number of the incomplet
e units will be displayed after the word “unit” instead of the “x”. This message will
not appear after this unit is completed.
.
The message to the right will be displayed at the start of the following week,
after the training type is selected and before the training plan. It is confirmed
by pressing the control button. This message will not be displayed as soon as
the missing training unit(s) is (are) completed.

The Coaching program can only help the user achieve his intended goal from training if the prescribed training
units are run consciously. This should be the normal situation!
In the case that a user must deviate from the training plan prescribed by the Coaching program because of
illness, vacation or others reasons, the Coaching program offers possibilities to adjust the training.
In the situation described here, the previous week (e.g. week 39) will remain selected (highlighted) until the missing
25% training units are completed and week 39 is complete to 100%. Only then you will be allowed to start the training
of the actual week 40. The highlighting (selection) of week 39 will be removed when the value reaches 100%.
If the training is interrupted for a longer period (1 to X weeks) because of illness or vacations, it be-comes then
impossible to catch up with the missing training units in a short period. For this situation, the Coaching program offers
the possibility to downgrade a variable number of weeks. In the example below, the training was interrupted for 2
weeks (week 40 and 41), and 67% of the last training week, which is only completed to 33%. In this situation the
program recommends downgrading to week 39. Then week 39 will also have to be completed to 100% before the
training can resume with the actual week 42.

week 39
In the case of training interruption, you have the possibility to
the training plan using the control button. It is
then possible to select a previous week (backward scrolling). Before the start of every training session, the computer runs
a review of the training status and displays the results on the graphic display, with information about any eventual
deviation from the training plan. This could be, for instance, missing training units from the previous week, which the
computer determines immediately at the beginning of the training session in the following week, and signals with the
message
(see illustration
below). The missing units (in the example below week 39) of the previous week must be completed to 100% before the
training of the actual week 40 can start.
