HEART RATE CONTROL COURSE

Once you complete the warm-up period and achieve your target heart rate, the Heart Rate Course monitors your heart rate and automatically maintains it within a few beats per minute (bpm) of the selected target. Lights on the SmartRate® bar graph appear to show the “zone” that you are in.

Note: For the C846 to detect a heart rate, you must grasp the handlebar grips or wear the POLAR® chest strap during a workout.

The handlebar grips or chest strap transmits your heart rate signal to the receiver that is installed in the display console. During your workout, the heart rate indicator lights which lets you see what your heart rate is doing even when the display is presenting other workout statistics.

To use the Heart Rate Course follow the steps found in Quick Steps to Working Out on page 31 and choose #9 — Heart Rate Control as the course.

Note: If your heart rate moves into the heart rate zone for your age during the three minute warm-up period, the warm-up period ends and the Heart Rate Course begins.

CAUTION: A warning message will appear if you go above your maximum recommended heart rate target zone. Heed the warning and get permission from your personal physician before working out above the maximum recommended zone for your age and fitness level. See Diagram 15 for the recommended target zones.

WEIGHT LOSS COURSE

The Precor Weight Loss course incorporates the latest findings on fat-burning and weight loss through exercise. It is based on research at the world-renowned Cooper Institute for Aerobics Research and it is designed to help you burn the most fat during a 28-minute workout, while minimizing the risk of discomfort and injury.The Weight Loss program is similar to the Interval course, but the intervals are set at four minutes. If you use the heart rate grips on the handlebar or wear the POLAR® chest strap, try to keep the rest interval’s target heart rate at 55% of (220 minus your age), while the work interval should be set to 70% of (220 minus your age). As in the Interval course, once you set the resistance levels for the first rest and work interval, the C846 automatically repeats the interval settings throughout the course.

Note: When you complete the 28-minute time limit set for the course, the auto- matic cool-down period begins.

RESISTANCE CUSTOM COURSE

A custom course is available on the C846 where the resistance is preset by the club. Though the resistance is preset, a user can adjust the settings during a workout by touching the RESISTANCE ▼▲ keys. Once the course ends, it reverts back to the custom resistance levels set by the club. Refer to Limiting the Resistance Range on page 18 and Customizing a Course on page 19.
