FIT TESTS PLUS (OPTION ENABLE/DISABLE)

When enabled, the Life Fitness Treadmill features additional fitness tests based upon specific predefined protocols. (See section 5.1 “My Configuration”, Fit Test Plus for information on how to enable these tests.)

ARMY PFT: 2.0 miles

The U.S. Army Physical Fitness Test is a physical performance test used to assess muscular endurance and cardiorespiratory fitness.

GERKIN: Submaximal VO2

The Gerkin Protocol is a graded submaximal VO2 test used by the International Association of Fire Fighters to determine fitness for fire department duty.

NAVY PRT: 1.5 miles

The running portion of the U.S. Navy Physical Readiness Test is a distance goal test based on the time needed to complete the required distance and is used by the U.S. Navy and Naval academies to measure aerobic capacity.

PHYSICAL EFFICIENCY BATTERY: 1.5 miles

The Physical Efficiency Battery is used by U.S. Federal Law Enforcement, U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation, and other federal organizations for the hiring and maintenance of federal jobs.

MARINES PFT: 3.0 miles

The U.S. Marines Physical Fitness Test is a physical performance test used to assess mus- cular endurance and cardiorespiratory fitness.

AIR FORCE PRT: 1.5 miles

The U.S. Air Force Physical Readiness Test is a physical performance test used to assess muscular endurance and cardiorespiratory fitness.

Scores for these tests are based on finishing time, age, and gender.

To set up one of these tests, choose Fitness Test and then choose your selected workout. If the selected test is either the NAVY or MARINES test, the Message Area displays a question as to whether the test is taking place below a certain altitude. For the NAVY test, the altitude is 5,000 feet above sea level; and for the MARINES test, the altitude is 4,500 feet above sea level. Using the ARROW KEYS, select the correct answer from: “ABOVE 5,000 FEET”(NAVY) / “ABOVE 4,500 FEET”(MARINES) or “BELOW 5,000 FEET”(NAVY) / “BELOW 4,500 FEET”(MARINES)

Go through the setup screens for the Fit Test, which may include Weight, Age, and Gender. Press ENTER after each entry. Then, begin the workout. To ensure an accurate test score, do not change these entries once the workout begins.

For all FITNESS TESTS except GERKIN, after the distance goal is reached, the workout program goes into a cooldown. The duration of this phase depends on the amount of time taken to complete the test. For less than five minutes, the cooldown is one minute. For five to 15 minutes, the cooldown is three minutes. For longer times, the cooldown is five minutes. The user can abort the cooldown by pressing the STOP key. After the cooldown is aborted or completed, the Message Area displays the finishing time and a point score for the PEB, Army, Air Force, and Marines tests; or a qualitative score, such as EXCELLENT, for the Navy test.

For the Gerkin test, the time at which the heart rate reached the target heart rate and is maintained for 15 seconds, and a converted VO2 MAX value will be shown in the MESSAGE AREA during the workout summary.
