Each column, as seen in the WORKOUT PROFILE WINDOW and the chart above, represents one interval. The overall duration of the workout determines the length of each interval. Each workout is made up of 20 intervals, so the duration of each interval is equal to the duration of the entire workout divided by 20.
1 to 9 minutes: A workout with a duration of less than 10 minutes is insufficient for the HILL program to complete all four phases adequately. The program, therefore, condenses a workout of this duration at various stages.
10 to 19 minutes: The interval durations initially are set at 30 seconds for a 10-minute workout. For every minute over 10, each interval increases by three seconds. A 15-minute workout consists of 20 intervals at 45 seconds each.
20 to 99 minutes: All intervals last 60 seconds. If the user adds minutes to the pre-set duration while the workout is in progress, the program adds hills and valleys that are identical to the first eight intervals of the Interval Training phase. This pattern repeats until the workout is completed.
PERSONAL TRAINER
SPORT TRAININGTM
This distance-goal workout is designed for runners training for races. The program creates realistic terrains by setting different incline levels throughout the course. Incline grades depend on the diffi- culty levels selected during the workout setup. A 1.5 percent incline grade, which is the baseline level, simulates a flat running surface. A zero percent grade simulates running downhill. Incline durations range between 30 and 60 seconds. The course ends when the distance goal is met. Two Sport TrainingTM programs are available on the treadmill:
•SPORT TRAININGTM 5K is a 5-kilometer, or 3.1-mile, course.
•SPORT TRAININGTM 10K is a 10-kilometer, or 6.2-mile, course.
•SPORT TRAININGTM (TIME, DISTANCE, OR CALORIES) is a time, distance or calories based training workout.
