CHAPTER FIVE: HRC PLANNER

Workout Suggestion

Fitness goal: choose from easy improvement, moderate improvement, or aggressive improvement.

Creating the Training Program: HRC Planner now creates and saves your entire training program.

HRC Planner does not keep track of how often you actually work out. If you train less often than suggested, your training program will require more total weeks.

Workout Suggestion: Each time you select HRC Planner after you have created your training program, HRC Planner suggests your next workout, recommending a target heart rate and a workout length.

Adjusting the suggestion: You may choose the suggested workout, or you may skip “back” to an easier workout, or even skip “forward” to a more challenging workout. HRC Planner remembers the last workout you complete, and resets its internal pointer to that spot. The next suggested workout is always the workout after the last workout you completed, as determined by the 24-week training program.

Workouts Stay the Same for a Week: HRC Planner generates workouts to be the same for a week, so you will notice workouts are the same three to five in a row.

Using HRC for each workout: Since all HRC Planner workouts are heart rate controlled workouts, you set up each workout just like you do a normal True HRC workout. HRC Planner will suggest settings for your maximum speed and grade, but you may adjust these. Like any True HRC workout, HRC Planner remembers your HRC parameters for your next workout, and you may leave them the same or readjust them.
