Using the Fitness Test

Maintain a constant stride rate, but let the program adjust the resistance for you. During the warm-up period the resistance is set at level 3. At the beginning of the 5-minute Fitness Test, the resistance automatically raises to level 9.

CAUTION: If you need to stop pedaling to regain control or reduce your heart rate, please do so—you can retake the Fitness Test later.

Completing the Fitness Test

When you finish the Fitness Test, the pedal resistance is reduced. No automatic cool-down period is provided after the test.

Create your own cool-down period by pressing the QUICKSTART key to enter the Manual Program and return your heart rate to a normal, restful state.

The fitness test automatically ends if one of the following occurs:

You stop pedaling.

Your heart rate increases and remains for one minute above 85% of the maximum allowable heart rate (220 minus your age).

You press RESET.

You complete the test.

Important: The Fitness Test continues even though a user walks away part way through the test or removes the chest strap. The test score will not be accurate because no reception (and therefore no measurement) of the heart rate was available at the end of the test period.

Fitness Test Scores

When you complete the fitness test, your cardiorespiratory fitness category is shown in the workout summary. Refer to Table 6 and Table 7.

Note: If no heart rate is detected at the end of the fourth minute and through to the end of the test, N/A appears as the fitness score.

Tables 6 and 7 show the desired range in fitness levels depending on your age and gender. More information is available at the Precor web site (www.precor.com).
