Exercise to Your Target Heart Rate
The cycle includes a program that lets you exercise based on a specified heart rate. You set your target heart rate at the beginning. As you exercise, the Heart Rate Program monitors your heart rate and automatically maintains it within a few beats per minute (bpm) of your selected target. Your actual heart rate appears in the display when the HEART RATE LED is lit.
To use this program, select HRC. You must also wear the chest strap so the program can monitor your heart rate throughout the exercise session. For more information, refer to Programs.
Heart Rate Analysis
Every time you complete a program using the chest strap, the cycle provides a heart rate analysis after the workout summary.
Your average heart rate appears followed by the maximum heart rate achieved during your workout. A third display, indicates the amount of time your heart rate remained between the target zones shown.
Note: The average is based on how often your heart rate signal is received while exercising.
