Relative values are usually percentage values that refer to a patient-specific parameter. Thus, with only one training definition, a specific training for all patients can be applied. This saves effort in the training definition as well as in the later process the annoying selection from different, but essentially always the same training profiles. In the training definition, the following reference values can be selected, depending on whether you want to create a profile for load or pulse data.

Reference valueTraining typeDescription
Watt / kgload profileThis is a common specification in training science. For example, it is defined that a patient should train 1.2 watts per kg body weight. This value is the watt value that has to be trampled per kg body weight (relative to the weight).
maximum Watt / kgload profileThis is the maximum watt/kg value determined in the stress test (stress ECG or spiroergometry), i.e. the maximum load related to the body weight under consideration of what the patient can achieve to the maximum.
maxumum HRHR profileThis is the maximum achieved heart rate of the patient determined in the tress test (stress-ECG or spiroergometry), or a value determined from various (adjustable) formulas.
HR reseerveHR profile

For training, the optimal HR can also be defined via the HR reserve (see Karvonen formula), where by definition HRreserve is := HRmax - HRrest.
The HR to be achieved is then HRrest + x % of HRReserve. The percentage of HRreserve is also called training intensity, which is usually around 60-70% in cardiological rehabilitation.
