HRC Workout Introduction

CHAPTER TWO: HRC WORKOUTS

TRUE’s HRC workouts let the treadmill monitor your relative exercise intensity by way of your heart rate, then automatically adjust the workload to keep you at your target heart rate and thus your desired exercise intensity.

Your heart rate is a good measure of your body’s exercise stress level. It reflects differences in your physical condition, how tired you are, the comfort of the workout environment, even your diet and emotional state. Using heart rate to control workload takes the guesswork out of your workout settings.

Consult your physician before using workouts for advice on selecting a target heart rate range. Also, it is important to use the treadmill for several workouts in the manual mode while monitoring your heart rate. Compare your heart

rate with how you feel to ensure your safety and comfort.

See Appendix A for a chart that may help you pick a target heart rate.

You need to wear a heart rate monitoring chest strap to use heart rate control. See the “Monitoring Your Heart Rate” section in Chapter 1 for a guide to proper usage. It is not recommended that you use the contact heart rate system for HRC workouts.
