PERSONAL TRAINER

Personal Trainer workouts are customized workouts designed either for the advanced user or to be used in connection with a personal trainer.

1)CROSS-TRAIN AEROBICS

During this workout, the unit prompts the user to emphasize different muscle groups. To emphasize upper-body muscles, the user is prompted to focus on pushing and pulling the moving arms at vari- ous times. To emphasize lower-body muscles, the the user is prompted to rest the hands on the sta- tionary handlebar, thus forcing the legs to do all the work.

CROSS-TRAIN AEROBICS is a constant-resistance workout. However, for a similar experience with a variable-resistance-level workout, the user can start any workout (except for Fat Burn, Cardio, Heart Rate Hill, Heart Rate Interval, or Extreme Heart Rate) and then under Mode select AEROBICS.

2)LIFE FITNESS FIT TEST

The Life Fitness Fit Test program is another exclusive feature of this versatile cross-trainer. The Life Fitness Fit Test measures cardiovascular fitness and can be used to monitor improvements in endurance every four to six weeks. The user must grasp the hand sensors when prompted or wear a heart rate chest strap, as the test score calculation is based on a heart rate reading. The workout duration will be five min- utes at the chosen resistance level. Immediately afterward, the console will take the user's heart rate read- ing, calculate a fitness score, and display the score in a results window.

The Fit Test is considered to be a submax VO2 (volume of oxygen) test. It gauges how well the heart sup- plies oxygenated blood to the exercising muscles, and how efficiently those muscles receive oxygen from the blood. Physicians and exercise physiologists generally regard this test as a good measure of aerobic capacity.

To set up the Fit Test:

Choose PERSONAL TRAINER, then LIFE FITNESS FIT TEST.

Go through the setup screens for the Fit Test, including WEIGHT, AGE, AND GENDER. Press Enter after each selection to record the entry.

Choose a workout level (ENTER LEVEL). Consult the following recommended fit test level chart for an appropriate effort level based on your age, gender and activity level. Use the NUMERIC BUT- TONS or UP/DOWN ARROW BUTTONS to enter the corresponding level.

As the test continues, a message will prompt the user to maintain a pedaling rate of 50-60 rpm (equivalent to 4.2-5.5 mph). The user must maintain this rate throughout the 5-minute test duration. After 16 seconds, if this speed is not maintained, the fit test will automatically terminate.

After the five-minute FIT TEST is completed, a FIT TEST score will be displayed.
