Home based interval training
The participant in the intervention group will receive an individualized interval training program. The individualized adjustments in training load will be made from the results of the CPET-incremental and adjustments in training time from the results of the constant work rate 75% of peak work rate (Watt). The training will be home based and performed on a ergometer cycle 3 times a week for twelve weeks. During exercise they will wear a heart rate monitoring watch. The registered heart rate will be transferred to a webpage after the exercise session. Only the physiotherapist and participant have the access to this page. The physiotherapist and participant will have a weekly contact to promote compliance, provide feedback and if necessary adjust the training time or load. Progression in training load and time will be made when necessary to keep a relevant intensity.
