Marpo VLT Rope Trainer
Designed specifically for the Armed Forces, the VLT Rope Trainer is a compact, lightweight and easy-to-use model that accommodates facilities with ceiling height limitations (i.e. ship vessels) while delivering the same intense exercise experience provided by larger models. Feature quick-release seat to allow for lower body standing exercises and wheelchair accessibility. The VLT Rope Trainer allows for strength and cardio conditioning, rehabilitative exercise and provides a safe, accessible and more versatile rope climbing alternative for sports training programs.
There are cardio programs for both general fitness level as well as athletes. Additionally we have 3 levels for each of the following
workout types: Strength, power and endurance programs. Each one of the 3 levels consists of a 6 week cycle of 2-3 times / week.
Before using these workout programs, you must consult with your physician to ensure that you are healthy enough to safely
perform these workouts. Always rest properly between sets. Light-headedness and dizziness are signs of over-training or
other medical conditions. Stop exercising and consult a trained physician.
Healthy Heart Zone (Warm up)
50 - 60% of maximum heart rate: The easiest zone and probably the best zone for people just starting a fitness program.
It can also be used as a warm up for more serious exercisers. This zone has been shown to help decrease body fat, blood pressure and cholesterol.
It also decreases the risk of degenerative diseases and has a low risk of injury. 85% of calories burned in this zone are fats!
Easy (Fitness Fat Burning)
60 - 70% of maximum heart rate: This zone provides the same benefits as the healthy heart zone, but is more Anaerobic and burns more total calories.
The percent of fat calories is still 85%. Moderate (Aerobic Endurance Training) 70 - 80% of maximum heart rate:
This zone will improve your cardiovascular and respiratory system AND increase the size and strength of your heart.
This is the preferred zone if you are training for an endurance event. More calories are burned with 50% from fat.
Moderate (Aerobic Endurance Training)
70 - 80% of maximum heart rate: This zone will improve your cardiovascular and respiratory system and increase the size and strength of your heart.
This is the preferred zone if you are training for an endurance event. More calories are burned with 50% from fat.
Intense (Anaerobic Performance Training)
80 - 90% of maximum heart rate: Benefits of this zone include an improved VO2 maximum (the highest amount of oxygen one can consume during exercise)
and thus an improved cardiorespiratory system, and a higher lactate tolerance ability which means your endurance will improve and you'll be able to fight fatigue better.
This is a high intensity zone burning more calories, 15 % from fat.
Red Line (Maximum Effort)
90 - 100% of maximum heart rate: Although this zone burns the highest number of calories, it is very anaerobic. Most people can only stay in this zone for short periods.
You should only train in this zone if you are in very good shape and have been cleared by a physician to do so.
