Soc 6 Rest, Recovery, overtraining, reversibility and the Thresholds Of Training Flashcards
Why do you need a training threshold?
A safe and effective way to train
What is the Karvonen formula?
A test to find out an individual’s optimum heart rate
Why do we train in a training threshold?
It is safe and effective
What is Aerobic training target zone?
The range of which and individual needs to work for aerobic training to take place. This is 60 - 80 percent of an individuals max heart rate
What is the rate an individual needs to work for anaerobic training?
80-90 percent. People doing this are usually experienced so they won’t get injured.
How do you work out your maximum heart rate?
220-your age= max heart rate
How do you find the training threshold once you have your max heart rate?
Find 60 and 80 percent that is the training threshold and they will get fitter
60 x204 divided by 100 =122.4
80 x 204divided by 100 = 163.2
How do you work out the karvonen formula for a 16 year old wanting to run at a max of 80%?
Resting heart rate:60 bpm
MHR=220-16=204 bpm
HRR=204-resting heart rate(e,g 60)=144 bpm
(144 x 80%)=115.2+60=175.2 bpm
