Fat Burn
The Fat Burn program is designed, as the name implies, to maximize the burning of fat. There
are many schools of thought on the best way to burn fat but most experts agree that a lower
exertion level that stays steady is the best. The absolute best way to burn fat is to keep your heart
rate at around 60% to 70% of its maximum potential. This program does not use heart rate but
simulates a lower, steady, exertion workout.
To start the Fat Burn program follow the instructions below or just press the Fat Burn button then
the Enter button and follow the directions in the message window.
