Exercise isn’t the same for everyone. The proper intensity, duration, and type of exercise should be based on your body’s specific needs, not on general guidelines or apps. <\/p>

At the clinics CarE MediC<\/strong><\/em><\/span>, prescribing exercise is a medical procedure based on specialized measurements, such as exercise spirometry (CPET) and resting energy expenditure (REE). This ensures that exercise is safe, targeted, and truly effective. <\/p>

Exercise prescription is the process by which a doctor precisely determines the type, intensity, and duration of exercise that is appropriate for you.<\/p>

It is not based on estimates or general formulas, but on objective data from your body. In this way, the workout is fully tailored to your fitness level, metabolism, cardiovascular and respiratory function, and personal goals. <\/p>

For individuals with chronic conditions or an increased cardiometabolic risk, a specialized assessment\u2014such as a Rehabilitation Assessment<\/a>\u2014is often conducted first.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The Process of Prescribing Exercise at Clinics CarE MediC<\/strong><\/em><\/span> is based on objective measurements and consists of three basic stages:<\/p>

  1. Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR): We measure your basal metabolic rate to determine how much energy your body consumes at rest and what fuel it uses (fat or carbohydrates).<\/li>
  2. Exercise Spirometry (CPET): We accurately assess cardiorespiratory function and determine the actual exercise zones (AT1, AT2) so that training is performed at the correct intensity.<\/li>
  3. Personalized Exercise Plan: By combining this data, we create an exercise program tailored to your body, with specific guidelines for intensity, duration, frequency, and type of exercise.<\/li>
  4. It is also possible to measure RM values for muscle groups (as a supplement) for muscle-strengthening programs

    Most exercise guidelines are based on general recommendations, such as \u201c30 minutes of walking a day\u201d or \u201ckeep your heart rate within a certain range.\u201d<\/p>

    However, every organism is different.<\/p>

    The same exercise may be ideal for one person, but ineffective or even harmful for another.<\/p>

    Without a personalized assessment, you won\u2019t know:\u2022 whether you\u2019re exercising at the right intensity \u2022 whether you\u2019re burning fat or carbohydrates \u2022 whether you\u2019re actually improving your physical condition \u2022 whether you\u2019re putting a strain on your heart or your body<\/p>

    Prescribing exercise solves exactly this problem.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
