Or go ahead and have him do HIIT work regardless and have a possible catastrophy on your hands.
That's the kind of shit that gives all trainers a bad reputation.

Uh... thanks for the help...
Kuri, I am NOT telling him to do anything yet so please don't judge me for someone who isn't trying to do the right thing. I am simply looking for a definitive source for this sort of information
BEFORE I make a recommendation either way just in case there is a resource out there that I wam missing. If one doesn't exist, that is fine. I did not know. Of course barring this I will use common sense.
FYI: In our gym we use RPE for all forms of cardio with all our clients as a rule anyway so safety measures are in place against this sort of catastrophy anyway.
