Section V: Cardiorespiratory Training Program Design
Plan a four-week cardiorespiratory training program, using resources available to you (facility, instructor, text). Complete the
following training calendar (A = activity, I = intensity, T = time).
To get started: Review Programs 3.1 to 3.3 on pages 103–112 for running, cycling, and swimming. Choose a Beginning
program if your Lab 3.2 fitness ratings are Fair or lower or the activity is new for you. Aim for an Intermediate program
if your Lab 3.2 fitness ratings are Good, and try an Advanced program if your ratings are Excellent or above and you
are used to this activity.
