DESIGNING A TRAINING PROGRAM
•
In order to achieve noticeable physical and health improvements, the following
factors have to be considered before determining the necessary training effort.
1. INTENSITY
•
The level of physical strain during training must exceed the normal burden without
reaching a point of breathlessness or exhaustion. A suitable guideline for effective
training is your pulse.
•
During training, it should be at a level between 70 % and 85 % of your maximum
pulse.
•
During the first week, your pulse during training should remain in the lower 70 %
of your maximum pulse. Over the course of the following weeks and months, your
pulse frequency should slowly increase to the upper level of 85 % of your maximum
pulse. The better your physical condition becomes, the more your training efforts
should be increased. This can be achieved by increasing the training duration and/
or increasing the difficulty level. To manually measure and log your heart rate, use
the following methods:
–
Pulse control measurement in the usual manner (feeling your pulse on your wrist
and counting the beats within one minute).
–
Pulse control measurement using suitable and calibrated pulse measurement
devices (available in a medical supplies store).
