German term or phrase: Ausdauersportprofil
"Bewegungsrezepte bzw. Trainingsprogramme für 5 unterschiedliche Stufen
Vom inaktiven “Couchpotato“ bis zum (hoch-) ambitionierten Hobby- oder Freizeitsportler
Bestandteile:
Kräftigungs- und Ausdauertraining
Ziel:
> 3x/Woche aktiv sein davon 2x Ausdauer und 1-2x Kräftigung
Ziel: zusätzlich 2000-3000 kcal durch Bewegung „verbrennen“
Krafttraining oder kraftgymnastische Übungen: stellen die optimale Ergänzung zu einem Ausdauersportprofil dar und können ergänzend in nahezu jede Trainingseinheit eingebaut oder alternierend angewendet werden.
Zum Anfang reichen ein handelsübliches Gymnastikband oder kleine Hanteln, die auch zusätzlich beim Laufen eingesetzt werden können.
Es wird eigentlich kein Fitnessstudio benötigt, das eigene Körpergewicht bzw. die genannten Kleingeräte sind ausreichend."

From some sort of exercise training programme. I can't find a translation for "Ausdauersportprofil" (or even "Sportprofil") anywhere and really don't understand what it means. Well it's something to do with endurance sport or endurance training - I can work out that much. My best guesses sound very clumsy indeed. TIA for your help.

Explanation:
... or something to that effect (so possibly even "an endurance sports programme", or "for people who participate in endurance sports").

I think your Sportprofil is simply the description of the type and level of sport that you participate in.

Many thanks - I would never have extracted that from the word "Profil" in a million years. Think I went with "endurance sports programme", as that had the most peer support. Thanks again - appreciate everyone's help.
