Heart Rate Control Programs (P11, and P12):
These programs will automatically adjust the resistance to bring your Heart
Rate into a target zone. The target heart rate zone for P11 is 60% of your
predicted maximum heart based on your age. This program is well suited
for burning fat Calories, Recovery training (to be done the day after a
particularly strenuous workout,) or training for those that are in the early
stages of a long term workout program.
The target heart rate zone for P12 is 85% of your predicted maximum heart
rate. This program is suited for strengthening of the cardiovascular
system, or burning a maximum amount of calories in a shorter period.
Fitness T
est (P6):
This test can be used as protocol for a “power increment” test in which
one would be trying to determine their Lactate, or Anaerobic Threshold
Heart Rate. Since this is a maximum ef
fort test, it is recommended that
this test be administered under the supervision of a qualified Sports
Medicine Physiologist.
