GOAL-BASED COURSES

These C846 courses (Distance Goal and Calorie Goal) are similar to the Manual course except that the user’s position and course duration are based on a “dis- tance” or “calorie” goal.You can use the numeric keys or the RESISTANCE ▼▲ keys any time during the course to change the resistance. When you complete the goal set for the course, the automatic cool-down period begins.

Note: A club time limit may exist for these courses. A prompt appears on the display if the club time limit is reached before the goal. Refer to Club Information.

FITNESS TEST

The Fitness Test (course number 14) provides a means of determining your fit- ness score. The algorithm used to create this course was developed by Dr. Neil Gordon of the Cooper Clinic.

The Fitness Test determines heart rate response to varying levels of exercise. It measures the maximum amount of oxygen the body can use for energy production during exercise.The higher the amount of oxygen that your body can use, the greater your ability to exercise for prolonged periods of time.You can use the results of the Fitness Test to personalize a weight loss fitness regimen to meet your needs.

FITNESS TEST GUIDELINES

Before selecting the Fitness Test, read the following guidelines:

•Sit and rest for at least five minutes prior to taking the test. This brings your heart rate to a resting state.

•You must wear the POLAR®chest strap and complete at least two of the six stages of the test before a fitness score can be achieved and presented.

•The fitness score is affected by your weight and age. Be sure to include this data during the Setup prompts.

•Let the test adjust the pedal resistance for you. However, if you need to stop pedaling to regain control or reduce your heart rate, please do so — you can retake the Fitness Test later.

•The RESISTANCE ▼▲ keys are disabled during the test.

•The number of two-minute stages that you complete is determined by the cycle’s software and is dependent on your level of fitness. Do not be alarmed if you do not complete all six stages; this is normal. However, you must complete at least two stages to receive a fitness score.

•When you finish the Fitness Test, the pedal resistance is reduced. No automatic cool-down period is appended to the test.

•Create your own cooling down period by pressing the RESISTANCE ▼▲ keys to regulate the brake and return your heart rate to a normal, restful state.
