rate. When both of these situations occur, then the console will perform the Recovery Test.
The console will show “01:00 STOP” and the time will begin to count down. Stop exercising but continue to grip the heart rate sensors. After 5 seconds, the display will show “00:55 RELAX” and will continue to count down to 00:00. For the entire minute the console will also show your heart rate. You must grip the heart rate sensors for the duration of the test.
The display will continue to show “RELAX” and your heart rate until the clock counts down to 00:00. The console will then calculate your recovery score.
Recovery Score = Your heart rate at 1:00 (the beginning of the test) minus your heart rate at 00:00 (the end of the test)
The display will show “SCORE (Recovery Score)”. This will remain on the dis- play for 5 seconds; then you can press RESULTS to view a summary of your workout and end the program you are working out in, or press START to resume working out where you left off.
The higher the Recovery Test score value, the quicker your heart rate is returning to a more restful state and is an indication of improving fitness. By recording these values over time you can see the trend toward better health!
When you press the RECOVERY button and there is no heart rate signal or display, the console will show “NEED HR” and the HEART RATE ICON on the display will blink. This message will show for 5 seconds, then the Program will resume. You must see your heart rate on the display and then you must push the RECOVERY button again to perform the test.
Helpful Tip: For a more relevant score, try to obtain a steady heart rate for 3 min- utes before pressing the RECOVERY button. This will be easier to achieve, and obtain the best result, in the Quick Start or Manual program so you can control level of resistance.
***Please note: The RECOVERY button does not function when you are in the BMI program.
