1. Method for guiding a person to a physiological cumulative state in a physical exercise, in which the exercise hasa physiological target in the form of a physiological state at the end of the exercise,a duration, anda performance parameter,in which method at the start of the exercise the physiological target and the value of the performance parameter are set, and during the exercise at regular intervals:

  • at least one quantity proportional to the momentary intensity is measured, andthe present physiological state and an estimate of the physiological state at the end of the exercise are calculated with the aid of the momentary intensity and the exercise performed, andan intensity guidance range for the momentary intensity is defined, in order to reach the target state and the performance parameter, and the user is guided by means of feedback to remain within the said intensity guidance range,characterized in that in the beginning part of the exercise the intensity guidance range is expanded according to a pre-selected function, in order to reduce the variation of the guidance, which pre-selected function reduces the expansion to zero towards the end of the exercise.
