Trionic Veloped

Increase your caloric expenditure through Veloped Walking! Though the Veloped has a lightweight aluminium frame, by pushing your Veloped you will include your upper body in the exercise and increase the energy output of your effort. Veloped Walking will increase your energy consumption with as much as 25 % compared to ordinary fitness walking, all depending on intensity and terrain. So, if your aim is to lose some weight, Veloped Walking is an excellent choice of physical exercise. Download our 12-week training program, treat yourself with a Veloped, and you are set to go!

The rolling support provided when Veloped Walking greatly reduces the impact and stress on your knees, hips, ankles and back. It’s an ideal exercise if you for example have week ankles or if you are recovering from knee problems. Veloped Walking can also relieve you from pain when exercising, for instance pain caused by arthritis or lower back pain.

With the sliding seat you can also take a break in between your efforts. In addition; the air-pressured tires and the suspension provide unbeatable comfort. Contrary to a vehicle with solid tires, the Veloped rides a lot smoother and you do not feel each and every bump in the road.

North Wales, October 2008:

Hi you all,
Today we set off up the track and then onto the grassy slope. It was great and I was going faster than some of the group who were really slow. My Veloped travelled over tarmac, grass, rock, shale, small rocky bits and bare earth. I hiked all the way up and over Conwy Mountain. I‘d done about 4,5 kms and climbed 200 m. I was delighted! I could never have done this without my Veloped. Even better was the fact that I wasn‘t even tired.

Best regards,
Hilary Ambrose, Southport, England

For 2010 Hilary has planned new adventures. She’ll be back shortly with more tales from her hiking tours.

In order for you to get started with exercising really easily, we have developed a 12-week Veloped Walking Plan. You start very gently, trying to use every opportunity for a little extra exercise. Your 12-week aim is to establish the habit of a daily 30-minute Veloped Walking session. When you start out, this doesn‘t have to be done in one walk, it can be split into two or three shorter walks. And remember that every step counts, even taking a stroll in your garden.

You can download the 12-week Veloped Walking Plan here.

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.
