Choose a Program

Determine your level of fitness: beginner, intermediate, or advanced.

Determine your immediate goal: endurance training, cardio-conditioning, or weight loss.

If you are a beginner, start a cardio-conditioning program to slowly adjust your body to a comfortable level of exercise. Over a recommended 8-week period, you will increase your endurance and strength while improving flexibility.

If you have been exercising and feel that you have reached an intermediate or advanced fitness level, you probably have established goals for yourself.

For all fitness levels, plan to exercise at a comfortable pace for 20 to 30 minutes a day. Wear a chest strap to monitor your heart rate. Supplement your plans with fitness workouts from the Precor web site (www.precor.com). The Precor web site also provides expert advice to help you reach your fitness goals.

Monitor Your Heart Rate

The SmartRate and heart rate displays provide visual cues that help you adjust your fitness routine to reach your goals. Use these features to keep your heart rate within the target zones.

Wear a Chest Strap

During a workout, the heart rate features appear on the display when you wear a chest strap. To receive an accurate reading, the chest strap needs to be in direct contact with your skin. After you put on the chest strap, face the display console for a minimum of 15 seconds. This allows the receiver in the console to recognize the signal from the chest strap.

1.Carefully dampen the back of the strap with tap water (Diagram A).

Important: Do not use deionized water. It does not have the proper minerals and salts to conduct electrical impulses.

2.Adjust the strap and fasten it around your chest. The strap should feel snug, not restrictive (Diagram B).

3.Make sure that the chest strap is right side up, lies horizontally across your chest, and is centered in the middle of your chest (Diagram C).

When these steps are complete, you are ready to view your heart rate!

Touch-Sensitive Handrail Grips

Several Precor products incorporate touch-sensitive heart rate grips on the handrails. If you prefer to use the touch-sensitive handrail grips, use both hands.

Make sure both hands are moist (not dry) when you grasp the touch-sensitive handrail grips.

SmartRate® Features

When you begin an exercise session, a blinking segment in the SmartRate display appears if you entered your age during the setup phase. The blinking segment indicates the current zone of your heart rate.

The calculation used for the heart rate target zone is your maximum aerobic heart rate:

(220 minus your age) multiplied by a percent.

For the ideal weight loss range, your heart rate should remain between 55% and 70% of your maximum aerobic heart rate. To improve your overall cardiovascular and respiratory fitness level, maintain your heart rate between 70% and 85% of your maximum aerobic heart rate.

For the greatest benefits, maintain your heart rate in either zone for 30 minutes or more at least three times a week.

CAUTION: Your heart rate should never exceed 85% of your maximum aerobic heart rate or go above your target zone (Diagram D).

Cool Down After Your Workout

Cooling down is an important aspect of your workout because it helps reduce muscle stiffness and soreness by transporting excess lactic acid out of the working muscles. Cooling down for at least three minutes helps provide a smooth transition that allows your heart rate to return to its normal, non-exercising state.
