4.3WORKOUT DESCRIPTIONS

QUICK START is the fastest way to begin exercising. After the QUICK START key is pressed, a MANUAL workout begins, at a very slow speed with the incline level set to zero by default. Change the speed using the PRESET SPEED keys on the Activity Zone to jump to a preset speed. Use the SPEED ARROW keys on the console or on the Activity Zone to gradually move the speed up or down as desired, or use the NUMERIC keypad to enter a new speed value. Use the INCLINE ARROW keys on the console or on the Activity Zone to move the incline gradually up or down as desired. For accurate caloric expendi- ture, enter your weight using the ENTER WEIGHT button. The preset speeds are as follows:

MANUAL

The MANUAL program is a constant effort workout in which the user can change incline level or speed at any time.

RANDOM

The RANDOM program creates a terrain of hills and valleys that varies with each workout. More than one million different patterns are possible.

FAT BURN

The FAT BURN workout is designed to maintain a user’s heart rate at 65%t of the theoretical maximum(HRmax) for optimal results. Throughout the workout, the user wears a Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap or grasps the LifepulseTM sensors.

If the user is not wearing a Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap, the WORKOUT PROFILE WINDOW displays a heart shape, and the MESSAGE CENTER displays a prompt to grasp the sensors. The console continuously monitors and displays the heart rate, adjusting the intensity level of the treadmill to reach and maintain the target. This system eliminates over- training and under-training, and it maximizes the aerobic benefits of exercise by using the body's fat stores for fuel.

Note: The intensity level is changed by incline. Speed can only be changed by the user.

CARDIO

The CARDIO workout is virtually identical to FAT BURN, however the target heart rate is calculated at 80% of the theoretical maximum (HRmax). The higher target promotes cardiovascular improvement by placing a heavier workload on the heart muscle.

Note: The intensity level is changed by incline. Speed can only be changed by the user.

Note: Change the target heart rate at any time by using the NUMERIC KEYPAD.

SPEED INTERVAL

This program allows the user to toggle between user defined JOG and RUN speeds. The SPEED INTERVAL button will flash throughout the workout. The user can toggle the speeds at any time during the workout by pressing the speed inter- val button. The current speed will appear in the speed display window.

The preset JOG and RUN speeds cannot be changed during a workout. The speed can be adjusted at any time during a workout using the SPEED ARROW keys. Toggling the JOG and RUN speeds using the SPEED INTERVAL button will reset the speeds to the preset JOG and RUN speeds.
