Heart Rate Interactive Programming Introduction and Overview (HR models only)

INTRODUCTION

The Smooth Heart Rate Interactive system is de- signed to maximize your workout by monitoring and adjusting the treadmill incline grade to main- tain your target heart rate. Once you enter your individual parameters for target heart rate, time, distance, or maximum incline, the treadmill’s computer takes over and automatically changes the incline grade to keep you near your target heart rate.

Warning: Consult your physician to deter- mine your target heart rate.

RECOMMENDATIONS

Before selecting a Heart Rate Interactive pro- gram or workout, it is important to use the tread- mill several times in Manual mode while monitor- ing your heart rate. A Heart Rate Chest Strap Transmitter is included with all HR models.

It is suggested for the Chest Strap Transmitter that you position the rectangular transmitter as close to your heart as possible, against the skin, 1-2 inches below the pectoral muscles. For best results, moisten the back of the transmitter with saline solution for a better contact. The PULSE diode on the console will blink when the unit is receiving from the Chest Strap Transmitter.

Smooth Heart Rate Programs Overview There are a total of 14 different Heart Rate Pro- grams, divided into 3 groups, available on the Smooth HR treadmills. The following is a brief description of each the 3 groups.

Group 1—Time Based Target Heart Rate Training

(HR Workouts 1 through 5)

These 5 programs are time based. You may preset your target heart rate, maximum incline, and time of workout. The distance traveled will vary depending on speed.

Group 2—Distance Based Target Heart Rate Training

(2 Mile, 4 Mile, 5K, and 10K)

These 4 programs are distance based. You may

your target heart rate, and maximum incline. The duration of the workout will depend upon your speed.

Group 3—Interval Time Based Target Heart Rate Training

(Interval HR Programs 1 through 5)

Interval heart rate training takes your workout to a new level. This type of training allows you to program periods of rest between periods of work. For each workout, you enter target heart rate, maximum incline, duration of workout, and duration of work and rest intervals. These time based workouts will vary the distance traveled depending upon your speed.

Heart Rate Monitoring Available in all other programs (not interactive)

In addition to the Heart Rate Interactive pro- grams in Groups 1 through 3, all other programs allow heart rate monitoring. Whether you choose Manual, Hill or Speed Intervals, Cardio- vascular Workout, or User Programs, the Chest Strap Transmitter will send a signal to allow heart rate monitoring.

How the Heart Rate Interactive System Works: Incline Grade Changes

To increase your heart rate toward your target, the treadmill will gradually increase incline to the maximum you set, in .5% increments.

To decrease your heart rate toward your target, the treadmill will gradually decrease incline to 0%, in .5% increments.

Note: The Heart Rate Interactive programs store your parameters once you have completed a HR program. You do not need to re-enter data. To quick start a previously completed program, insert the Safety Key, select the program, and press START.
