Claim One:
1. A system for monitoring a cumulative physiological state and for predicting a target state under physical exercise, in which the user's physiological state is depicted by a selected cumulative physiological variable and the target state depicts this variable after a future period of exercise, which system includes means for measuring a variable depicting the intensity of the exercise and for registering it relative to time, and means for measuring intensity and time, connected to an control unit, consisting of a user-interface device, consisting of an input device for selecting the output variable and for entering the values of the initial variables, and an output device for displaying the output variable, first software means for calculating the current value of the said cumulative physiological variable, with the aid of the measured intensity of exercise and the preceding value, second software means for calculating the value of an output variable, the output variable being one of the following three variables: target state, future intensity, or duration of future exercise; the two other variables being given as the said initial variables, and in which the system is arranged to calculate and display the value of the output variable using the output device, essentially in real time and continuously.
