As shown in Diagram 15, when a user maintains his or her heart rate between 70% and 85% of their maximum aerobic heart rate, overall improvement occurs to his or her cardiorespiratory fitness level. If a person maintains his or her heart rate between 55% and 70% of their maximum aerobic heart rate, he or she is burning enough calories that, when continued on a regular basis for 30 minutes or more, provides the greatest fat-burning (weight loss) benefits.

USING THE HEART RATE CAPABILITY

Important: A user can access SmartRate and utilize all heart rate function, only if he or she grasps the heart rate grips ont he handlebars or sears a POLAR® chest strap. See Obtaining Service on page 7. The SmartRate indicator lights do not appear when you use the QuickStart key.

A user can make each program on the C764 a heart rate interactive course by monitoring and maintaining his or her heart rate in the SmartRate zone best suited for their specific needs.

Before utilizing the heart rate capabilities (SmartRate), take time to read the following guidelines. Make sure that you informs your customers as well.

Consult with your physician before engaging in any vigorous exercise. Do not use SmartRate until authorized by your physician.

Slow down and stop the workout immediately if you experience any pain or abnormal symptoms.

Gently stretch your lower body and back before and after the test to help prevent stiffness or soreness.
