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 percent of the theoretical maxi- mum(HRmax) for optimal results. Throughout the workout, the user wears a chest strap or grasps the Lifepulse sensors. If the user is not wearing a chest strap, the WORKOUT PROGRESS SCREEN dis- plays a heart shape, and the Message Area prompts the user to grasp the sensors. The console continu- ously monitors and displays the heart rate, adjusting the intensity level of the treadmill to reach and main- tain the target* (See note below). This system eliminates over- and under-training, and it maximizes the aerobic benefits of exercise by using the body's fat stores for fuel.

CARDIO

The CARDIO workout is virtually identical to FAT BURN; however the target heart rate** is cal- culated at 80 percent of the theoretical maximum(HRmax). The higher target promotes cardio- vascular improvement by placing a heavier workload on the heart muscle (See note below).

NOTE: The intensity level is changed by incline. Speed can be only changed by the user. Change the target heart rate at any time by using the arrow keys under the THR, or by touching the THR button to access the Target Heart Rate Workout Setup Screen.

HILL

The Life Fitness-patented HILL workout offers a variety of configurations for interval training. Intervals are periods of intense cardiovascular exercise separated by regular periods of lower-intensity exer- cise. The WORKOUT PROFILE WINDOW represents these high and low intervals as columns of light, which together have the appearance of hills and valleys. The computerized interval training workout has been scientifically demonstrated to promote greater cardiorespiratory improvement than steady-pace training.

The HILL workout goes through four phases, each marked by different intensity levels. The WORK- OUT PROFILE window displays the progress of these phases. As noted in the descriptions below, the heart rate should be measured at two stages in the workout to gauge its effectiveness. Wear the chest strap or continuously grip the LifepulseTM handles. The Message Area does not display a request for a heart rate measurement, as it does with CARDIO, FAT BURN and the HEART RATE ZONE TRAINING programs.

1Warm-upis a phase of low, gradually rising resistance, which brings the heart rate into the lower end of the target zone and increases respiration and blood flow to working muscles.

2Plateau increases the intensity slightly, and keeps it steady, to bring the heart rate to the low

end of the target zone. Check the heart rate at the end of this phase.3 Interval Training is a series of increasingly steeper hills, alternating with valleys, or stints of recov- ery. The heart rate should rise to the high end of the target zone. Check the heart rate at the end of this phase.

3Cool-downis a low-intensity phase that allows the body to begin removing lactic acid, and other exercise by-products, which build up in muscles and contribute to soreness.
