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.
