fitness level. Check your recovery rate at any time in suggestion, see Chapter 12 Reviewing plans and history on page 26. If the recovery time is more than 24 hours, we strongly recommend you to have a rest day to avoid over-exercising.

If you are using the free exercise type, we strongly recommend you to exercise only if your recovery time is less than 24 hours.
