Training Tips
If your aim is to lose weight, training sessions
need to be 30-60 minutes or longer in the fat
burn zone. The longer the duration the more
calories burned, especially from fat. The
percentage of burnt fat calories will appear in a
summary after the session.
For improving your cardiovascular fitness, aim to
train in the fitness zone three or four times a week
for 20-40 minutes per session. The fitter you are,
the more training (more often and longer duration)
is required for fitness improvement.
