Exercise Objective
 
 
You may use various exercise intensities to achieve a range of exercise 
objectives. For example;
 
 
Fat Burn Training (Weight Maintenance) - the main objective is to burn
 
fat stores as the primary source of fuel, reducing weight. To achieve
 
this exercise objective, low exercise intensities (60 - 70%) and longer 
exercise durations are required. Recent research has shown that efficient 
weight maintenance training is maximized by including shorts bursts of
 
high intensity training within your fitness program.
 
 
Aerobic Training (Cardio Vascular) - the main objective is to improve
 
the efficiency with which the cardio vascular system can supply oxygen, 
enhancing endurance and well being. To achieve this exercise objective, 
moderate intensities (70 - 80%) and moderate durations are required.
 
 
Maximal Training (Fatigue Tolerance) - the main objective is to improve 
the recovery of the aerobic system after short bursts of intensive 
exercise. To achieve this exercise objective, high intensities (>80%) are 
required for short sharp bursts followed by a period of recovery to avoid 
the onset of fatigue.
 
 
Monitoring Exercise Intensity
 
 
The WaterRower contains several means of monitoring your exercise 
progress. The Series 4 Monitor provides a choice between speed in
 
m/s, mph, /500m, 2km, power in watts and energy consumption in cal/hr.
 
 
While these measurements give an indication of progress, they are 
extremely subjective as an accurate measure of one’s individual exercise 
intensity. Most importantly, they fail to take account of exercise objective, 
level of fitness, age, gender, fatigue, hydration, stress, energy stores 
and physiological cycle, as mentioned earlier.
 
 
There are various means of monitoring one’s individual exercise intensities 
and, hence, accurately targeting your exercise objective. One of the best 
researched (and convenient) means relies on the correlation between 
exercise intensity and heart rate.
