Heart Rate Training
Generally, heart rate goes up while exercising. The harder you exer- cise, the more your heart rate goes up. Thus heart rate is a good indication of the exercise intensity. Setting a certain heart rate and making an effort to maintain that rate is a scientific training method, which can be utilized by beginners or top level athletes. Before start- ing a training program, consult a medical specialist or trainer.
1. General training for improving health
By setting your target zone (your target heart rate), you can train to improve your health through bicycling. Depending on your physical strength, the training level from 30% up to 70% is possible. Desirable frequency is: more than three times a week; and more than twenty or thirty minutes at a time. For obtaining your target zone, refer to Fig. 25, which illustrates the correlation between the heart rate and train- ing level. For beginners, the level of 30% or so is recommended; from this point, gradually increase according to your experience. For the highest goal, the level of 70% or so is enough to reach. Meanwhile, for the purpose of losing weight, train at the comparatively lower level for a longer time; for more than one hour, if possible.
