USING THE SPRINT 8 PROGRAM

The Sprint 8 program is an anaerobic interval program designed to build muscle, improve speed, and naturally increase the release of Human Growth Hormone (HGH) in your body. Producing HGH through exercise and a proper diet has been shown as an effective way to burn fat and build lean muscle mass according to Phil Campbell, author of Ready, Set, Go! Synergy Fitness. Please go to Mr. Campbell’s website www.readysetgofitness.com for more details about this radical new approach to fitness.

The SPRINT 8 program features intense sprint intervals followed by recovery intervals. The program includes the following phases:

1.WARM-UPshould gradually increase your heart rate and increase respiration and blood flow to working muscles. The warm-up is controlled by the user to meet your specific needs.

2.INTERVAL TRAINING starts immediately after the warm-up with a 30-second Sprint interval. Seven Recovery Intervals of 90 seconds will alternate with the eight 30–second Sprint Intervals. The message display will prompt you to increase your stride rate during the Sprint Interval and decrease stride rate during the Recovery Interval. A difference of 40 to 60 Strides Per Minute between Sprint Interval and Recovery Interval is recommended.

3.COOL-DOWNhelps return your body’s systems to resting levels. Less demand is placed on your heart during recovery if an appropriate cool-down is used following the exercise.

Due to the fact that this is a specialized training program, total workout time is not displayed during the program. The interval time is displayed in the time window instead. It takes only 20 minutes to complete the SPRINT 8 workout.
