The Lifestride trainer's patented Hill Profile program offers the ideal configuration for interval training: periods of high-effort aerobic activity separated by regular intervals of low-intensity exercise. The Hill Profile

program is available invarious time durations. You can select 1 through

6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 24, 36, 48, or 60 minute programs. Each program is composed of four stages: (1) Warm-up, (2) Plateau, (3) Interval Training, and (4) Cool Down.

The Lifestride treadmill is unique in the fitness industry. Its patented,

computerized interval training program has been scientifically

demonstrated to yield more statistically significant cardiorespiratory improvement than steady-pace training. The Hill Profile program offers interval training with progressive overload. Not only does it offer the challenge of alternating periods of high and low intensity, but the levels of intensity become progressively more difficult during the course of the program.

Warm-up Period: Gradually brings your heart rate into the lower portion of your Target Heart Rate Range and increases respiration. Blood flow to working muscles also increases (see page 47 to calculate your

.

THRR).

Plateau Period: Increases heart rate so that it is within your THRR. Take your pulse (heart rate check) at the end of the plateau period to ensure that you have entered your THRR.

Interval Training Period: Comprises periods of higher and lower intensity levels. During this period, you are confronted with four progressively higher incline levels. Each is separated from the next by a recovery period. Take your pulse at the end of the interval training period to ensure that you have stayed within your THRR.

Cool-down Period: Reduced incline levels gradually reduce heart rate to the lower end of your THRR. The cool-down period allows the body to begin removing accumulated end-products of exercise, such as lactic
