2.14 Heart Rate Recovery (T260 only)

Your T260 is pre programmed with a unique and useful program that is used to help determine your ﬁtness level. After a program (workout) the T260 can be used to countdown towards your predetermined resting heart rate.

In order to use this program you will need to turn ON Heart Rate Recovery in the settings menu. Default this option is turned off. You would need to enter in you resting heart rate.

Fit Levels

Although it is difﬁcult to assess each individual based on a generic chart. It is agreed that a quicker time from an exercise level heart rate to a resting (predetermined) heart rate is beneﬁcial to cardio ﬁtness. The best way to use this program is to use it today.

Using Recovery

It will only work while using the optional chest strap. After your exercise is complete, stay on the machine with your chest strap facing the console. Try not to move. It is best to keep your arms to your side as to not interfere with the signal. Stay in this position until the computer has ﬁnished reading the heart rate signal. Depending on your ﬁtness level this could be a few minutes or longer.

NOTE – Using Heart Rate Recovery with Cool/Down. Note that the Heart Rate Recovery will start counting only after the Cool/Down has ended. If you are using Warm/Up and Cool/Down your Heart Rate Recovery will only start at the end. In order to beneﬁt from Heart Rate Recovery we receommend that Cool/Down not be activated.

A program is a pre-set hill pattern. You will get the same proﬁle (hills and valleys) every time you select the same speciﬁc exercise program. By increasing the levels you can change the predetermined hill proﬁles. The programs allow you to monitor your progress and they add fun and interest to your exercise.

Each segment time is equal to the selected exercise time divided by 15 segments. Therefore, a 45 minute exercise results in a 3 minute segment time.

NOTE – The T240 will never show the speed and elevation proﬁles since it displays only big numbers.
