TRAINING TOOLS PROGRAMS

The TRAINING TOOLS programs include the HEART RATE CONTROL and WATTS CONTROL programs. When using the HEART RATE CONTROL programs, use of a heart rate strap (rather than the heart rate grips) is recommended. (NOTE: Heart rate strap is not included with the Total Body Trainer.)

HEART RATE CONTROL PROGRAMS

TRAINING TOOLS offers both a Dynamic Heart Rate Control program and a Constant Heart Rate Control program.

NOTE: For best results, use a heart rate strap. If user is wearing a heart rate strap, the Total Body Trainer will automatically use the data from the heart rate strap.

To operate the Dynamic Heart Rate Control program:

This heart rate feature is designed to gradually elevate your heart rate to the upper end of your selected training range, then gradually decrease your heart rate to the lower end of your selected training range by dynamically controlling strid- ing resistance. During the workout, this cycle will repeat several times until the time goal is complete, creating an interval training effect that is customized to the user’s desired heart rate training range.

During program setup, there must be at least an 20 BPM dif- ference between the lower heart rate limit and upper heart rate limit to ensure an interval workout.

By including interval exercise in your regular aerobic pro- gram, greater effects are noticed. Your heart and muscles will adapt to the increases in demand by utilizing stored calories for energy more effectively. Dynamic Heart Rate Control may potentially result in more calories expended. It will strengthen the heart, provide stress relief and variety to a workout. This program is more effective in training the body to remove excess lactic acid from the muscles.

To calculate your training zone, use the following formulas: (theoretical max HR = 220 - Age)

NOTE: Calculating your theoretical maximum heart rate using age is an approximation. For more information, please contact a fitness professional or doctor.

2.You are prompted to select the desired TRAINING TOOLS program. Press the key to select a Heart Rate Control program, then press the key when prompted to select Interval Heart Rate Control.
