Program

Description

 

 

Fat Burner

This program has been designed by Dr. Emily

 

Cooper of Seattle Performance Medicine

 

(www.spmedicine.com) to improve fat-burning

 

results and increase endurance every time you

 

exercise. The program incorporates warm-up

 

and cool-down periods and allows you to select

 

a program time between 30 and 90 minutes.

 

Work and rest intervals appear along with

 

recommended stride rates. The faster pace

 

stride rates, combined with fairly low resistance

 

levels, provides optimal oxygenation to the

 

working muscles. The display prompts you

 

when you need to make changes in your stride

 

rate. To monitor your heart rate during the

 

program, use the touch-sensitive handrail grips

 

or wear a chest strap. Refer to Heart Rate

 

Features.

 

 

Weight Loss

Use this program if you are beginning or

Interval

returning to a regular fitness routine. The

 

workout time is fixed at 28 minutes and consists

 

of seven 4-minute intervals. You are not

 

prompted for a workout time.
