COOLING DOWN AFTER A WORKOUT

Cooling down is an important aspect of your workout because it helps reduce muscle stiffness and soreness by transporting excess lactic acid out of the working muscles. Cooling down for at least 3 minutes helps provide a smooth transition that allows your heart rate to return to its normal (non-exercising) state. The EFX automatically initiates a 5-minute cool-down period once you complete a course that has a specified time duration. A prompt appears, indicat- ing that you are in cool down.

During your cool down, the workout statistics continue to appear. The TIME display begins anew with a 5-minute count down. When you complete the 5-minute cool down, a FINAL banner appears. See the information in step 5 above and on page 27.

Important: To activate a cool-down period, a course must “end.” The course ends when the workout Time (entered during the Setup prompts) expires or the club time limit is exceeded.
