along with gradual changes in effort. The overall
goal is to raise heart rate, maintain the raised
heart rate for most of the workout, then gradually

that reach maximum effort. The overall goal is to
vary heart rate by elevating and lowering it
several times, providing a challenging
cardiovascular workout.
