Abstract
A rehabilitation training device and method in which a target heart rate is input, the heart rate is measured and a load in an ergometer operated by the person undergoing rehabilitation is changed accordingly. There are four steps in the training: (1) warm up--the load is increased to have the heart rate linearly approach the target value; (2) automatic--the load is varied to maintain the heart rate at the target; (3) interval--the load is alternated between its average value in the automatic step and a fraction thereof, and (4) cool-down-the load is gradually decreased.
