PWC 170 = heart rate upper limit of 170, trained test person
On PWC 130, the initial strain is 25 W; on PWC 150 and PWC 170, the initial strain is
50 W each. The strain increases by 25 W (PWC 130) and by 50 W (PWC 150, PWC
170) every two minutes. An assessment will only be carried out after the set heart rate
has been reached and the set strain step has been ended.
The test result will be a Watts/kg value. With this value and the PWC classification
table (see Chapter A8 "Test evaluation"), you can assess your actual fitness level.
