TYPES OF WORKOUT SETUP SCREENS

GOAL SETUP SCREENS

•Goal Type: The default setting of Goal Type is TIME (length of workout) allowing the user to set a predeter- mined length of time for the workout.

Users may also choose a more advanced Goal Type such as DISTANCE, CALORIES, or TIME IN ZONE (only available for heart rate programs).

For Distance, Calories, Pace, Distance Climbed, and Time in Zone, the length of the workout depends on how long it takes to reach the goal. The workout continues until the goal is met. To exit early, either choose COOL DOWN from the bottom of the display to go immediately into the cool down phase, or choose CHANGE WORKOUT to access a different program. For more information, see Section 4.2, Using the Workouts, Selecting a Goal Type.

For information on how to set, and get maximum benefit from, these type of workout goals consult a Personal Trainer. For further information on Zone Training see section 3.1, Heart Rate Zone Training, Why Heart Rate Zone Training Exercise.

•Level: Choose the programmed intensity level of the workout. Levels range from 1 to 20.

•Incline: Choose the amount of incline on the treadmill.

•Speed: Use to set the striding belt speed of the treadmill.

•Target Heart Rate*: (heart rate workouts only) Gives a recommended heart rate according to age. For Fat Burn, the target heart rate is computed at 65% of the theoretical maximum† heart rate. For Cardio, the target heart rate is computed at 80%. For more information on Target Heart Rate, see Section 3, Heart Rate Zone Training Exercise.

VALUE SETUP SCREENS

•Weight: Entering an accurate weight allows calories to be calculated, and enables Calories Burned and Calories per Hour.

•Age: Allows heart rate programs to accurately determine target heart rate.

•Gender: For accurate Fitness Testing.

4)WORKOUT PROGRESS

The Workout Progress screen opens automatically upon completion of the setup, signaling the user to start the workout. This screen allows the user to monitor the progress of the workout. It provides a visual representation of the workout as it proceeds and monitors distance, pace, elapsed time, heart rate, incline, speed, and calories expended/calories per hour.

From the Workout Progress Screen, goals including Time, Incline, Speed and Target Heart Rate* (for heart rate programs) can be changed at any point during the workout. This screen also accesses TV viewing. Not every goal item is available in every workout. Only valid goal times are shown and accessible in the workout progress screen during a workout.

†Defined by the American College of Sports Medicine's "Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription" as equal to 220 minus an individual’s age.

*Target Heart Rate (THR) is a percentage of the theoretical maximum. For example, a 40-year-old user's THR for the FAT BURN workout is 117. This work- out targets 65 percent of the maximum, so the equation would be (220-40)*.65=117.
