Warming-up phase 1 with
defined load and time
Starting the Training Program in the Menu Start program > Training.
Please Note:
Warming-up Phase 2:
The training heart rate (target HR) should be reached during warming-up phase 2. However, A1 and A2
should together not exceed 5 to 8 minutes. This time is mainly determined by the Po value and the
increase in load. From a physiological point of view, an increase in load by 10 watts per minute is
recommended for a healthy person but it should not exceed 15 watts/minute even for well trained
individuals. If the period of 5 to 8 minutes is not reached with the settings selected for the first training,
the initial load (Po) should be adjusted.
Training Phase:
The effective training is in the training phase. It is important that the body, heart and circulation are
trained but no overload is exerted. The pulse-steady-state program is a very easy means to achieve this. If
the performance decreases by more than 15% within 20 minutes from the start of the training, the load is
too high. In this case, reduce the target HR until an acceptable value is reached. If the performance
decrease is less than 10%, the target HR can be increased.
Adjustment:
During the warming-up phase A1, the Po load can be adjusted in 5-watt steps using the + and - arrow
keys.
During the training phase (TP), the target heart rate (target HR) can be adjusted using the arrow keys.
Load increase by
10 watts/min up to the
target HR or until the set
time has elapsed
In the training phase, the load is
controlled by the HR. It should not be
more than 10–15% lower at the end
than at the start.
Recovery phase: The
load is reduced to 0
within the set time
Heart rate progress. The HR is
kept on the preset level
during the training phase
(TP).
