4.2USING THE WORKOUTS

TO BEGIN A WORKOUT

To mount the Life Fitness cross-trainer, grasp the handles, and carefully step on the pedals. To dismount, step off the pedals while still holding the handles. Then, let go of the handles. Press START or simply begin pedaling to activate the console. The MESSAGE CENTER displays the prompt: “SELECT WORKOUT USING ARROW KEYS OR PRESS QUICK START”. If it displays a different message, press the CLEAR key twice rapidly.

SELECTING AND USING QUICK START

QUICK START is the fastest way to begin exercising, and it bypasses the steps of selecting a specific workout program. At the MESSAGE CENTER prompt to select a workout, press the QUICK START key. The workout begins at an intensity level that remains the same unless manually changed. After 12 seconds, the MESSAGE CENTER displays a prompt to enter weight.

SELECTING A WORKOUT

For all workouts: When prompted to select a workout, use the ARROW KEYS or WORKOUT PROFILES key to scroll through the workout names as they appear in the MESSAGE CENTER. When the desired workout appears, press ENTER.

For MY WORKOUTS, once a workout is configured and saved, no further setup steps are necessary. For more information, see Section 4.4, titled Using My Workouts Personal Programs.

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. The default weight is 150 pounds or 68 kilograms. The on-board computer calculates the number and rate of calories burned using the entered weight as well as the pedaling RPMs.
