With most exercises you run a great risk of overexerting yourself, but Veloped Walking keeps you going at the right intensity. When pushing the Veloped you will both increase the training effect, and also use a little more energy. By engaging your upper body when Veloped Walking your heart rate increases with 5-15 beats per minute, when compared to ordinary walking. The actual increase in heart rate of course depends on your intensity level and the walking terrain.
The intensity level of Veloped Walking is optimal for improving your health, while at the same time achieving a high fat burning effect. Increasing the pulse rate, for instance by running, will on the one hand improve the cardiovascular effect, but at the same time the intensity will force your system to switch to mainly glycogen for fuel instead of fat.
For a maximum combined health and fat burn effect, the ideal pulse rate is 55 – 70 % of your maximum heart rate. The recommended intensity level is shown in the pulsrate/age-diagram to the left, where the green field represents the ideal for health improvement and fatburn.
So if your aim is to lose weight and improve your fitness at a steady rate, Veloped Walking is an excellent choice. You can exercise a little longer each time, and instead of wearing yourself down you will enjoy faster progress when working towards your personal goal.
