To operate the FIT TEST program:
The Fit Test is a modified version of the Balke and Ware protocol for maximal VO2 treadmill testing. The Fit Test requires 12 min- utes to complete. During the Fit Test, treadmill speed remains at a constant 3.4 mph. Treadmill incline is set at 0% during the first minute, increases to 2% during the second minute, and increases by 1% per minute for the remainder of the test. Your heart rate results are compared with charted data for your corresponding age and gender. Test results are given on a scale of 1 to 10, and include your calculated VO2 max. VO2 max is a physiological measurement of a bodies ability to absorb oxygen and has spe- cific correlation to your fitness level.
NOTE: You must wear the heart rate strap during the FIT TEST to monitor your heart rate.
