GENERAL TRAINING INSTRUCTIONS
You must consider the following factors in determining the amount of training effort required in order to attain tangible physical and health benefits.
-
INTENSITY:
The level of physical exertion during training must exceed the point of normal exertion, without going beyond the point of breathlessness and/or exhaustion. A suitable reference value can be the pulse. With each training session, the condition increases and therefore the trai- ning requirements should be adjusted. This is possible by extending the duration of the training, increasing the level of difficulty or changing the type of training. -
TRAINING HEART RATE
To determine the training heart rate, you can proceed as follows. Please note that these are guide values. If you have health problems or are unsure, consult a doctor or fitness trainer.
01: Maximum heart rate calculation
The maximum pulse value can be determined in many different ways, since the maximum pulse depends on many factors. You can use the main-formula for the calculation (maximum heart rate = 220 – age). This formula is very general. It is used in many home sport products to determine the maximum heart rate. We recommend the Sally-Edwards-formula. This formula calculates the maximum heart rate more precisely and takes gender, age and body weight into account.
Sally-Edwards-formula:
Men: Maximum heart rate = 214 – (0.5 x age) – (0.11 x body weight)
Women: Maximum heart rate = 210 – (0.5 x age) – (0.11 x body weight)
02: Training heart rate calculation
The optimal training heart rate is determined by the goal of the training. Training zones were defined for this.
Health – Zone: Regeneration and Compensation Suitable for: Beginners / type of training: very light cardio training / goal: recovery and health promotion.
Building the basic condition.
Training heart rate = 50 to 60% of the maximum heart rate
Aerobic – Zone: Basics endurance training 1 to 2 Suitable for beginners and advanced / type of training: moderate cardio training. / Aim: Activation of the fat metabolism (calorie burning), improving aerobic performance, Increase in endurance performance.
Training heart rate = 70 to 80% of the maximum heart rate
Anaerobic – Zone: Basics endurance training 2
Suitable for advanced and competitive athletes / type of training: moderate endurance training or interval training / goal: improvement of lactate tolerance, maximum increase in performance.
Training heart rate = 80 to 90% of the maximum heart rate Competition – Zone: Performance / Competition Training Suitable for athletes and high-performance athletes / type of training: intensive interval training and competition training / goal: improvement of maximum speed and power.
ATTENTION! Training in this area can lead to overloading of the cardiovascular system and damage to health.
Training heart rate = 90 to 100% of the maximum heart rate
Sample calculation:
Male, 30 years old and weighs 80 kg. I am a beginner and would like to lose some weight and increase my endurance.
01: Maximum pulse – calculation
Maximum heart rate = 214 – (0.5 x age) – (0.11 x body weight)
Maximum heart rate = 214 – (0.5 x 30) – (0.11 x 80)
Maximum pulse = approx. 190 beats/min
02: Training heart rate calculation
Due to my goals and training level, the fat metabolism zone suits me best.
Training heart rate = 60 to 70% of the maximum heart rate Training heart rate = 190 x 0.6 [60%] Training heart rate = approx. 114 beats/min
After you have set your training heart rate for your training condition or Once you have identified goals, you can start training. Most of our pro- ducts have heart rate sensors or are heart rate belt compatible. So you can check your heart rate on the monitor during the workouts. If the pulse rate is not shown on the computer display or you want to be on the safe side and want to check your pulse rate, which could be incorrectly displayed due to possible application errors or similar, you can use the following tools:
a. Pulse measurement in the conventional way (sensing the pulse beat, e.g. on the wrist and counting the beats within a minute).
b. Heart rate measurement with suitable and calibrated heart rate measuring devices (available from medical supply stores).
c. Heart rate measurement with other products such as heart rate monitors, smartphones…. -
FREQUENCY:
Most experts recommend the combination of a health-conscious diet, which must be adjusted according to the training goal, and physical exercise three to five times a week. A normal adult needs twice a week exercise to maintain its current condition. To improve his condition and change his body weight, he needs at least three training sessions per week. Ideal of course is a frequency of five training sessions per week. -
TRAINING PLAN
Each training session should consist of three training phases: „warmup phase“, „training phase“ and „cool-down phase“. In the „warm-up phase“ the body temperature and the oxygen supply should be increased slowly. This is possible through gymnastic exercises over a period of five to ten minutes. After that you start with actual training “training phase”. The training load should be adapted according to the training heart rate. In order to support the circulation after the training phase and to prevent aching or strained muscles later, it is necessary to follow the training phase with a cool-down phase. This should be consist of stretching exercises and/ or light gymnastic exercises for a period of five to ten minutes.
Example – stretching exercises for the warm-up and cool-down phases
Start your warm up by walking on the spot for at least 3 minutes and then perform the following gymnastic exercises to the body for the training phase to prepare accordingly. The exercises do not overdo it and only as far run until a slight drag felt. This position will hold a while.
Reach with your left hand behind your head to the right shoulder and pull with the right hand slightly to the left elbow. After 20sec. switch arm.
Bend forward as far forward as possible and let your legs almost stretched. Show it with your fingers in the direction of toe. 2 x 20sec.
Sit down with one leg stretched out on the floor and bend forward and try to reach the foot with your hands. 2 x 20sec.
Kneel in a wide lunge forward and support yourself with your hands on the floor. Press the pelvis down. Change after 20 sec leg.
- MOTIVATION
The key to a successful program is regular training. You should set a fixed time and place for each day of training and prepare yourself men- tally for the training. Only train when you are in the mood for it and always have your goal in view. With continuous training you will be able to see how you are progressing day by day and are approaching your personal training goal bit by bit.
