Standardising bouts of exercise training for use in a clinical population
13 June 2017
The purpose of this study is to standardise exercise training sessions over a range of different activities. Each time someone undertakes a session of exercise they expend energy (usually measured in calories) and the body responds. We are aiming to create a set of sessions that all equate to the same amount of work achieved, based on your exercising heart rate, and the calories you burn during exercise. This will allow us, in the future, to ‘prescribe’ exercise sessions to a clinical group.
