rate. Each training zone has an upper and a lower heart rate limit.

long duration and low intensity, more fat than carbohydrates is

burned or converted into energy. Training in this zone will help you

lose weight.

Training in this zone enhances your basic endurance level.

k Individual Training zone

This zone is set up by you.

The procedure for selecting the training zone is described in section
