3.1WHY HEART RATE ZONE TRAINING® EXERCISE?

Research shows that maintaining a specific heart rate while exercising is the optimal way to monitor the intensity of a workout and to achieve maximum results. That is the idea behind the Life Fitness Heart Rate Zone Training® approach to exercise.

Zone Training identifies an exerciser's ideal heart rate range, or zone, for burning fat or increasing cardiovascular fitness. The zone is a percentage of the theoretical maximum (HRmax), and its value depends on the workout. The maximal heart rate formula is defined by the American College of Sports Medicine's "Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription", 8th Edition, 2010. HRmax equals to 206.9 minus the total of 0.67 multiplied by a person’s age.

HR Max = 206.9 - (0.67 * age)

The Life Fitness Lifecycle exercise bike features exclusive workouts designed to take full advantage of the benefits of Heart Rate Zone Training+ exercise:

• FAT BURN

• HEART RATE HILLTM

• EXTREME HEART RATETM

• CARDIO

• HEART RATE INTERVALTM

 

Each workout offers different benefits, as discussed in Section 4 The Workouts.

Note: Consulting a fitness trainer is recommended for defining specific fitness goals and designing a workout program.

To change the target heart rate during a workout use the ARROW keys. To switch between programs during a workout, use the CHANGE WORKOUTS key.

The Heart Rate Zone Training® workout programs measure heart rate. Wear the optional Polar® telemetry heart rate chest strap, or grip the LifepulseTM sensors, to enable the bike’s on-board computer to monitor the heart rate during a workout. The computer automatically adjusts the resistance level to maintain the target heart rate based on the actual heart rate.
