The proposed method of individual rationing of exercise is based on comparative ergometric assessment of different kinds of exercise evaluating their load capacity expressed in power units. A table of equivalent loads, based on ergometric correlations, is proposed that contributes to the development of individualized physical recuperation programs. The rationing of exercise is based on the patient's physical stress tolerance (threshold capacity) and body weight. Training programs include intensive (75-80% of threshold capacity in 3 minutes' sessions, 10 to 12 times daily) and nonintensive (50% of threshold capacity for 1 to 1.5 h daily) loads. This program produced optimum recuperation results, whereas nonintensive loads alone had no training effect, and overintensive training was associated with a high rate of negative results.
