Choices During Workout Setup

five : Heart Rate Control Workouts

5 - Warm up. At the beginning of an HRC workout, the treadmill is in full Manual control mode. Gradually increase your work level to slowly raise your heart rate to within 10 beats per minute (bpm) of your target heart rate.

6 - Heart rate control stage. Now the treadmill takes control of speed and incline, keeping your heart rate within a few bpm of your target. If you are using interval HRC, the treadmill alternates between work and rest intervals.

7 - Cool-down. At the end of your workout time or distance, the treadmill reduces workload by half and goes back into Manual control mode, where you directly control your cool-down.

Setup

Your treadmill can remember more than one workout setup for a heart rate control workout. The Z5 has two time-based target HRC setups; the Z5.4 has five target and two interval HRC setups; and the Z5.5 has 5 target, 5 interval, and 4 distance-based HRC setups. It stores each set of workout parameters under numbered workouts, e.g., "Target HR 1," "Target HR 2," "Interval HRC 1," etc. You can select these in later workouts so you don't have to re-enter your workout parameters, which tend to stay the same from workout to workout.

During workout setup, if you keep pressing , you will continue to scroll through the workout setup

parameters. You can press at any time to accept the current parameters and begin your workout.
