The two most popular reasons for, or goals, of exercise are cardiovascular fitness (training for the heart and lungs) and weight control. The black columns on the chart below represent the Maximum Heart Rate for a person whose age is listed at the bottom of each column. The heart rate training zone, for either cardiovascular fitness or weight loss is represented by two different diagonal lines in the chart. A definition of the line￿s goal is in the bottom left-hand corner of the chart. If your goal is cardiovascular fitness or if it is weight loss, it can be achieved by training at 90% or 70%, respectively, of your Maximum Heart Rate on a schedule approved by your physician. Consult your physician before participating in any exercise program.

With all Spirit Heart Rate Control bikes you may use the heart rate monitor feature without using the Heart Rate Control program. This function can be used during manual mode or during any of the nine different programs. The Heart Rate Control program automatically controls resistance at the pedals.
