Zone Training
The CardioCoach allows you to customize the workout zones based on
various methods utilized throughout the fitness industry: percent VO
2
Max,
Percent HR MAX and so on. The default zones calculated at the end of
testing are based on a system of Cardiorespiratory training originally
developed by Blau, et al.
2
Zone 1
Warm-Up
Below 85%
Zone 2
Low Intensity/ Active Recovery
85 - 94% AT
Zone3
Endurance
94 - 105% AT
Zone 4
Tempo
105% AT - 50% Δ
Zone 5
VO
2
Peak Training
50% Δ - VO2 Peak
Error Check: If Lowest measure is greater than 90% of AT, use 60 bmp, if
already lower than 60 use 0 for starting point.
* If 105% AT is greater than 60% Max, Zone2 = 20% of (Max - AT) + AT
Estimated Values
CardioCoach PRO uses a number of estimated values within its results.
Resting Metabolic Rate Results
Calories Burned Through Exercise. If the client has not performed a
VO
2
Max test, this number must be estimated based on METS. The
METS are calculated accordingly:
• Light = 3 METS (walking a dog)
• Moderate = 6 METS (jog/walk combination 4 mph)
• Hard = 9 METS (running 5.2 mph)
Note: It is not necessary to reach a maximum VO₂ to determine AT. The
system display indicates when exercise intensity has reached a level
that is sufficient for AT detection. While the CardioCoach is capable of
determining maximum VO₂, it is not necessary to do so for AT
detection.
In no case should testing proceed beyond the intensity level deemed
safe by the user’s physician.
Commented [JK5]: This is a different method on the MAX,
so this line can be deleted.
