4.2USING THE WORKOUTS
Different stairclimber workouts require different setup steps. See the chart on the following page, titled Life Fitness Stairclimber Workout
Note: A new Life Fitness stairclimber may emit a slight smell during the first few hours of operation as the load resistor heats up for the first time. If the smell persists, contact customer service.
TO BEGIN ANY WORKOUT
Without networking, press START or simply step on the pedals to activate the console. The MESSAGE CENTER displays the prompt: “SELECT WORKOUT OR PRESS QUICK START”. If it displays a different message, press the CLEAR key twice rapidly.
When the stairclimber is networked, press START or step on the pedals to activate the console. The MESSAGE CENTER displays the prompt: “SELECT WORKOUT OR ENTER ID USING ENTER KEY”. Select a workout, or log on to the networked exercise database, and download the preset workout. To log onto the network, key in the user ID number with the NUMERIC KEYPAD.
SELECTING QUICK START
QUICK START is the fastest way to begin exercising, and it bypasses the steps of selecting a specific workout. At the MESSAGE CENTER prompt, press the QUICK START key.
The workout begins at an intensity level that remains the same unless manually changed.
SELECTING A WORKOUT
For MANUAL, FAT BURN (93Si only), CARDIO (93Si only), RANDOM, and HILL: When prompted to select a workout, use the ARROW KEYS to scroll through the workout names as they appear in the MESSAGE CENTER. When the desired workout appears, press ENTER.
For AROUND THE WORLD, KILIMANJARO, INTERVAL, CASCADES, SPEED TRAINING, FOOT HILLS, and FIT TEST: All of these workouts are available on the 93Si model only. When prompted by the MESSAGE CENTER to select a workout, press the WORKOUTS PLUS key. The MESSAGE CENTER then displays the name of one of these workouts. Press ENTER to select the displayed workout; or continue to press the WORKOUTS PLUS key to display each of the other options, and then press ENTER to select the desired workout.
ENTERING WEIGHT
When prompted by the MESSAGE CENTER to enter weight, use the ARROW KEYS to increase or decrease the displayed weight to the correct value, and press ENTER. Stairclimber workouts calculate the number of calories burned based on the user’s weight and step rate.
ENTERING AGE
When prompted by the MESSAGE CENTER to enter age, use the ARROW KEYS to increase or decrease the displayed age to the correct value, and press ENTER. Stairclimber workouts that set a target heart rate* zone first calculate the user’s theoretical maximum heart rate† by subtracting the user’s age from the number 220. The workouts then calculate the target zone as a percentage of the theoretical maximum.
