Programs

This section describes the programs available on the EFX. Use this section as a reference tool to better understand each program’s purpose. For more information, refer to Selecting a Program.

The program descriptions are presented in menu selection order. To see a list of programs, refer to PROGRAMS Keypad and Table 3.

Choosing a Program

Choosing a program depends on your goals. If you are a beginner or returning to regular exercise, you can start a cardio-conditioning program to slowly return your body to a comfortable level of exercise. If you have been exercising and feel that you have an intermediate or advanced fitness level, you probably have established goals. The Precor web site (www.precor.com) can give you many ideas about fitness workouts and advice from the experts.

Several exercise choices on the EFX are pre-programmed with recommendations for CrossRamp, resistance and alternating interval levels. You always have the option to override the suggested levels with the exception of the Basic HRC and Fitness Test.
