Heart Rate Program Tips

The Heart Rate programs enhance your overall cardiovascular fitness levels to help you achieve your weight loss and fitness goals. Read through the following tips before selecting a program. These tips provide general information regarding how the programs function. For more information and exercise suggestions, refer to the Precor web site at www.precor.com.

•Each program provides a 3-minute warm-up period. During this time, you may change the incline or speed.

Note: When your target heart rate is achieved or the

3-minute period elapses, the warm-up period ends and the program begins.

•Each program automatically adjusts the incline to keep your heart rate at the selected target. After the warm-up period, pressing the INCLINE arrow keys no longer affects the incline motor. You can press the SPEED arrow keys to adjust the speed and press the navigational arrow keys to change the target heart rate during your exercise session. The display lets you know when changes to either are about to occur.

•Changing the target heart rate or speed affects the unit’s ability to maintain your target heart rate in the preferred zone. It takes time for the treadmill to readjust the incline so that your heart rate remains on target. Check the SmartRate and the HEART RATE displays to see if you are maintaining your preferred zone and to determine your actual heart rate. For information about understanding your target heart rate, refer to Heart Rate Features.

•To adjust the time, press the TIME +/– key and use the navigational arrow keys or number keypad followed by OK to change the workout time.

•Cool down periods are incorporated into each program.

The table below briefly explains the purpose of each program.
